Drawing from extensive experience in the car industry, a former car salesman has shed light on the vehicles most targeted by thieves in the UK. Recent statistics from last year indicate that owners of certain car models need to remain particularly vigilant, as these vehicles rank highest in theft incidents.
The five types of cars most commonly stolen have been identified based on frequency and theft patterns. While some models may be obvious choices due to their popularity or value, one detail about the list took the ex-salesman by surprise—underlining the importance of understanding theft trends beyond just high-end or luxury vehicles.
Vehicle owners are encouraged to enhance security measures regardless of their car’s make or model, as thieves often exploit vulnerabilities in specific types of vehicles. Awareness of these trends can help reduce the risk of theft and improve overall vehicle safety.
