Get ready to struggle and wince at the manc accent, watch out you don't

I'm not sure there would be too much threat of the TR being 'nicked',
swiped,taxed,cadged,ripped-off, or simply stolen. As long as it was
garaged,alarmed, stop-locked, immobilised and you weren't in Moss side
or 'Little Ireland' then it might survive! I have relations in
Warrington and they haven't been murdered in their beds ..yet.
