Festival revellers had their cars partially dismantled and stripped for parts by cruel thieves.

Pictures show entire sets of wheels, seats and an engine were stripped from multiple vehicles parked at Creamfields site in Cheshire over the Bank Holiday weekend.

The victims included the owner of a Range Rover who discovered almost the entire front end of the luxury vehicle was missing.

The images were posted to a Facebook with the caption: "Never thought I'd post this, but here's the best of Stolen car parts – Creamfields car park 2019"

Plasterer Josh Hayes, 24, was one of the unfortunate ones whose car was broken into as he enjoyed acts including Calvin Harris, Swedish House Mafia and the Chemical Brothers at the dance festival.

"Walking back to the car after a weekend at Creamfields to find the window and lock smashed and all of the dashboard ripped apart in an attempt to steal the radio. They obviously couldn't get it out so just left the van trashed."

Autism support worker, Alana Fisher, 30, was also broken into while she enjoyed the music festival.

She wrote: "I was totally distraught when I got back to the car, and emotional but my friends got there first.

"All our stuff was lying out on the bonnet and the grass, everything had been raided. My friends purse was found over at another man's jeep which had been broken into as well."

The post has seen significant traffic, raking in over 2,000 comments and 1,500 comments.

Rhys Lynch claimed: "Sad times for festival goers this year, professional thieves entering a secure car park removing parts from valuable car parts. The security is totally corrupt!"

Bethan Warburton said: "Security done a pure shocking job this year! Happy to take £325 for a silver ticket for 4 days, and some pay extra for parking, but isn't happy enough to ensure that all cars are safe in the car park! Be something if they even had cameras or extra staff to monitor the car park, considering how much money they make!"

Craig Sim said; "Think how much they paid for parking and it's not even secure. I'd be suing the organising so quickly! What a joke!"

Andrew Riley said; "To rip of that many cars, they had to have support from security."
