A colleague had his car stolen, and the cops found it a week later. Can’t remember if it was for a joy ride, parts, or a more nefarious reason, but a bum or two took up residence, and the interior had to be completely ripped out, and replaced.
I know a guy who had his car stolen and he found it out of gas a year later less than 10 miles from his home. Even his golf clubs were still in the trunk.
