Wendy saw the car on her way to the bank. The time on the bank clock was 12.40 p.m., so the car was there before Suzy left the office. Suzy was seen driving on Fulham Palace Road at 2.45 p.m., and John Cannan was driving on the M1 towards the West Midlands then. I have spoken to the witness who saw Suzy on Fulham Palace Road she was a personal friend of Suzy and even waved to her

This case is so deep. I believe JC was out of the area heading towards Birmingham. I'm not totally sure that Barbara (?) had the 2:45 time right but she did at least know Suzy. Your car comment puzzles me. If Suzy's car was here before Suzy left the office then Suzy never used it. Could it be that she left at 12:35 or 12:37? If the bank clock is precise to GMT (a long shot) then the timeline still works if the Sturgis clock was a couple of minutes fast. It's a very short drive from Sturgis to Stevenage Road. Where are you on the Shorrolds viewing?

The car was there before Suzt left the office the keys to 37 never left the office and the vendor confirmed to my researcher that there was only one set. The white fiesta was on Stevenage Road before Wendy left to walk to the bank and it never moved because Suzy was driving the decoy car when she was seen in Fulham Palace Road my researchers spent weeks covering every detail and even had lunch with the office junior as was then he drove the Fiesta before Suzy

Wasn't there also a sighting of a young lady matching Suzy's description and a well dressed man sat on the grass in Bishops Park talking wasn't there? which was close by too ....not sure if this was ruled out

I don't remember the sitting on the grass but that is where the left-hand drive BMW was seen. The two occupants might have been arguing and the car screeched off from the area. This has not been ruled out and has featured on all the Crimewatch reconstructions.

At least you now know Paul that Suze car was stolen and driven to Stevenage Road as I explained earlier few days back and confirmed by Wendy at 123 Stevenage Road. It looks to me like various decoys were put in place to divert Police off the scent e.g. White Fiesta heading north along Fulham Palace Road out of the area and the other staged event of a male outside 37 Shorrolds Road with a woman looking like Suze and even more likely they then drive on to Stevenage Road to give another false impression! How was her Fiesta stolen? well we know for sure it was not hot wired but you can purchase 'Jiggler Keys' today online very easily but in the mid 80's were more difficult to obtain and were only normally on offer to the Police back then. I will add one other piece to this jigsaw and that is Suze attended the annual Royal Henley Regatta at the start of July and its highly likely she may have met an admirer there that adds more fuel to the fire.
