Police Scotland confirmed the stolen vehicle has now been recovered though no arrests have been made.

A spokeswoman for Halfords confirmed they were continuing to assist officers with their inquiries.

Staff were seen moving a damaged gate at the garage on Tuesday afternoon as the premises remained open.

A social media appeal was also launched in the aftermath of the break-in to try and help trace the vehicle.

One man who did not wish to be named said he had seen the appeal for the car and the damage to the premises.

He added: “It said there had been a ram-raid at the business just behind the Whitehall Theatre.

“I walked that way home last night and I saw the damaged gate and staff were moving it.

“There also appeared to be some damage to a door that staff would use to access the garage space.”
