no ordinary criminal, however, and at first, police were confused about the case. 1.__________ This may
not sound like a crime, but they were not his cars, it was not his job and he was not paid to clean them.

them had a price of more than £40,000 each. Blain was able to steal the cars using a technique that he
perfected over time. 2. __________ He then chose a car and asked to test-drive it. He drove away from
the showroom and didn’t come back. 3. ___________ Blain washed and cleaned each one before leaving
