Britain's most-stolen cars have been announced, as criminals develop new ways of targeting unsuspecting motorists. The latest figures detail how one in every one hundred Land Rovers were swiped between March 2022 and March 2023, with police slipping under in the war on road crime.
The data also revealed the models which are now most likely to be targeted by crooks, as well as the hardware they use to make off with motors. An average of 159 vehicles were recorded as stolen each and every day on average in the 12-month period, with a grand total of 58,082 cars, vans and motorbikes going missing in the time frame.
Thieves use new key fobs to steal the SUVs - which have a whopping theft rate of 924 thefts per 100,000. According to the figures from Confused.com, the Mercedes-Benz was the second most popular vehicle of choice for crooks to steal.
