Most stolen models 2024

[Dustydog]

Tesco Bank's research suggests some brands are more likely to be stolen than others.

The insurer analysed its own claims data from the year to August 2024, and found that 16% of claims for stolen motors were for Ford models.

Land Rovers were second, also accounting for 16% of claims, followed by Mercedes (9%), BMWs (8%) and Toyotas (5%).

Ford was a surprise.

In South Africa Toyota Landcruiser is the most stolen vehicle by a long shot. Landrovers are way down the list. No idea about Ford.

I’ve just bought an Audi A6 and my insurer (LV) would only insure it if it had a theft tracker fitted as they consider them to be a high risk car. Others weren’t bothered about a tracker
