Wormwood Motors is owned by Mr. Wormwood who deals in second hand cars, but, unknown to his customers, the cars are stolen from all over the country, and arrive in wrecked states.

After doing so, Wormwood lies to his customers, telling them that the cars are practically new and barely used. Wormwood's son, Michael, has inherited his father's enthusiasm for criminal activity, and Wormwood's plans are to hand the family business over to him when he is
