The two high value BMWs were taken from driveways on Hillside Road and Hornet Way, Burnham last Friday.

Both cars were removed without keys, between 11pm and 6am.

Police are encouraging car owners to consider fitting steering locks and trackers in their vehicles and installing security lights and alarms.
