Somewhat similiar.
Our works 8 was in for a service and a gearbox check.
Our tracker system showed it pottering around Preston, Lancs when it was supposed to be in St Helens, near Warrington.
We checked the log and found it had been doing 101 mph on the northbound M6 prior to this. Then whilst we were watching it went south on the M6 at 106 mph.
We contacted the garage and they said it was on it's way to the gearbox specialist in Preston for research into the suspect gearbox.
Turns out that the fitter that was taking it there lived in Preston so he was doing the grand tour around friends and relations showing off.
The garage owner reported that the fitter had been reprimanded.
Needless to say they will not be seeing any of our vehicles again.
