    It's not illegal to steal it back, but to drive it home you would need to have kept up insurance on the stolen car and possibly ensured it was roadworthy, taxed, or licensed in accordance with the local law, not modified in a way that was illegal or voided your insurance, etc. Definitely better to call the police.
