The DVLA has revealed the most stolen cars of 2022 - with Fords and Vauxhalls being among the most at risk brands.
The soon-to-be discontinued Ford Fiesta remains at the top spot for stolen vehicles in the UK. Despite coming off the market in mid-2023, the popular hatchback remains a go-to motor and drivers are at risk of their Fiesta being stolen with 5724 taken without permission in 2022.
Riverdale Leasing's CEO and automotive expert, Vince Pemberton, said: "Keyless car theft known as relay theft is becoming increasingly more common. This is where people take advantage of keyless entry, using a device to capture the signal sent to the car."
