Police were today appealing for witnesses to an armed carjacking on the A113 between Abridge and Ongar.

The owner of a black Audi Quattro Coupe took his car on a test drive with a man he thought was a potential buyer.

As they pulled into a forecourt on the busy A-road, the car's owner was threatened at gun point before the carjacker sped off in his vehicle on Saturday afternoon. Call 01279 625508.
