But is this stolen, but then recovered because the Tracker is fitted?

It didn't say if they were recovered or not but you could assume so if the Tracker is doing it's job. The list just stated most stolen cars top 10 !

No - no age disclosed, although they pictured a WRX 2011 Saloon at the top of the article, which drew my attention to it !

The good people at Tracker have helped us out by scouring their data to establish which posh cars were most popular with UK criminals in 2010. Here are the results. All of the cars featured here boast advanced anti-theft technology, so thieves must resort to other clever strategies to nick them.


This is only tracker data...so only cars that have a tracker fitted
Not realy a true representation.
I'd like to know the whole stats for the UK

Without wishing to make the evo sound exclusive, I wonder if no one steals them because there is hardly any about?

I only see one with any regularity, a yellow one in Abertillery.

I virtually never see them these days.

Or have they all been nicked already perhaps
