Short story The Great white van man Robbery

stolen vanOne suburb in London appears to have fallen prey to a mysterious group  of thieves,
within 3 weeks these thieves stole seven vans of identical make and model vanishing them into thin air late one night…. The vans taken where all of similar model line the of beloved  Mercedes Sprinters - the white van man’s ultimate road rage mean machine and a very popular choice among removal men, self employed courier guys, and just about any company that wants trouble free motoring , the mystery  is why the sudden interest in this sort of van ? Why? shouldn’t they be better off  nicking a tasty 4X4 or a family sedan?or at lest some thing not as visible big! Well here are a few theories about what might be The Great White Van Scam.
I’ve pick one that just make’s sense to me beaning a proud mercedes sprinter owner myself here you have it!
Sparepart = blackmarket
so out of a few out ot 7 these van vanished like  a fart in the wind” Just a few have been found - minus the all import aka (exspensive parts) of their mechanical chasiss. So the most probable/theory,is the thief/s are members of a ring gang  spare parts re-sale market. Surely they could pick from any number of websites selling cheap {cough} genuine used van parts albeit they must be collecting a tidy profit mind you stripping a van completely then sell off all your parts by part than as a whole, and it makes tracing the origin near impossible.
