Talk:grand theft auto

Would be interesting to learn how this phrase came into existence, as the word order is rather peculiar. --91.42.25.46 03:40, 4 October 2008 (UTC)


 * It shows up in statistical tables on crime in the early 1930s as "grand theft - auto", "grand theft, auto". We would only have 30 more years before to get to the invention of the car. When did legislators introduce automobile registration and special laws for larceny involving automobiles? DCDuring TALK 10:03, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
