Top 5 Most Stolen Cars in the UK 2025 show just how advanced vehicle theft has become in recent years. Car theft in the UK is projected to hit another record high in 2025, and the worrying part is that thieves are no longer relying on brute force. Techniques like key cloning, CAN bus hacking, signal boosting, relay attacks, and disabling factory immobilisers have become alarmingly common.
Even high-end vehicles equipped with advanced technology are being stolen in under 60 secondsoften silently and without triggering alarms. As specialist vehicle security partners, we’ve noticed a clear trend: organised crime groups are specifically targeting keyless premium vehicles, especially those with high resale value or desirable parts.
Keyless convenience has unintentionally created wireless vulnerability. Most factory systems protect against forced entry, but not signal replay, CAN hacking, or code injection. This is why layered protection has become highly essential in 2025.
Still at the top for a fourth straight year, the Range Rover series is the number-one target for luxury theft rings. Thieves use CAN bus injection to bypass security in under 90 seconds without any key, noise or trace. Most owners are unaware that factory security alone is not enough.
Key Risk:Professional-level theft via diagnostic access & key cloning.
Protect With:Ghost Immobiliser + S5 Tracker with Driver ID + OBD Port Lock. Even if thieves hack the car computer, it won’t start without the secret immobiliser code and Autotrackershop’s S5 systems instantly alert police-backed recovery teams.
BMWs are being stolen using relay attacks and smart key spoofingmore than ever before. As long as your key is inside your home, thieves can boost the signalfrom outside your wall and replicate it instantly.
Key Risk:Relay signal cloning even with the key inside the house.
Protect With:Faraday Key Pouches + Ghost Immobiliser + Tracker.
Bonus Layer:Autotrackershop OBD relocation kit to block diagnostic hacking.
Once considered an “ordinary family car”, the Fiesta is becoming Britain’s most stolen mainstream car, especially the ST-Line and older keyless variants. They are lightweight, easy to move, and appear less suspicious to the public.
Key Risk:Entry-level cars targeted for stripping & illegal resale.
Protect With:Viper 106V Touch Key Immobiliser + S7 Tracker.
Autotrackershop recommends Viper immobilisers as an affordable yet powerful defense of ‘no key, no start’.
Mercedes vehicles are highly targeted due to their electronic complexity and not security strength alone. Criminals exploit factory system trust, spoofing digital key IDs.
Key Risk:CAN bus override + digital signal impersonation.
Protect With:Ghost Immobiliser + S5 Tracker + Stealth OBD Lock.
Ghost is unhackable because it has no RF signal and no code to intercept.
Beyond traditional vehicle tracking and immobilisation systems, Autotrackershop also offers specialised solutions tailored for modern mobility, workforce management, and advanced vehicle protection.
1. Advanced Workforce Management Tracker
The Advanced Workforce Management Tracker is an innovative solution developed for healthcare professionals, maintenance engineers, social workers, or lone drivers. It supports two-way voice communication, allowing up to five pre-set contacts for instant calling or SMS alerts in emergencies.
2. Viper 106V Touch Key CAT 2 Immobiliser
A trusted name in the UK car security market, the Viper 106V Touch Key CAT 2 Immobiliser is one of the most reliable systems available for vehicle immobilisation and anti-theft protection. Its secure, touch-based operation ensures only authorised users can start the engine, offering an extra layer of defence against both electronic and manual theft attempts.
A layered approach combines complementary technologies so weaknesses in one defence are covered by another. For example, an invisible immobiliser prevents the car starting even if a thief bypasses locking systems, while a Thatcham-approved tracker gives live location and recovery support. Add OBD port protection to stop diagnostic reprogramming, Faraday pouches to block relay attacks, and dashcams to capture evidence, and you turn a single point of failure into a multi-barrier system. Proper installation, regular software updates and 24/7 monitoring tie the layers together, meaning that with two or more correctly deployed defences your risk of successful theft falls commonly by over 90%.
Car thieves are not opportunists anymore; they are technicians.
They don’t break windows. They speak to the car in its own language and take it in silence. Autotrackershop protects thousands of UK vehicles every year, from family hatchbacks to supercharged SUVs, using military-grade immobilisation and Thatcham-approved tracking tech. If your vehicle is on this list or valued at over £25,000, do not rely on factory security alone in 2025.
