A woman thought she was seeing double when she spotted a car identical to hers parked opposite - and it even had the same numberplate.
The motorist, who has not been identified, noticed that she had parked next to a silver Ford Kuga at Melbicks Garden Centre in Coleshill, Warwickshire.
And upon closer inspection last Monday, the baffled woman realised the car - which was the same model as hers - also had the same numberplate.

She rang the police who confirmed one of the Kugas was stolen from Birmingham last year. It had been masked by copying the genuine numberplate.
The stolen car also contained several items connected with burglaries across the West Midlands and investigations are now ongoing into the stolen vehicle.
The two litre-engine Ford Kuga, which sells for £28,500 new, has a top speed of 126mph and can perform 0-62mph in just over nine seconds.
