🔓 Highest theft rates in the past year
All vehicle types
Passenger cars the Police reported stolen in the past year, out of those on the road. Only models with at least 5 reported stolen and 100 on the road are ranked.
✅ Highest WOF success rates for their age
Lowest first
The share of WOF inspections passed (the bar, out of 100%, with its year's average marked), across the vehicles looked up on CarJam in the past six months, against the average for vehicles built the same year: older cars fail more, so each model is ranked by how far it beats or trails its year, and a rate counts for more the more inspections back it up. Only models with at least 30 vehicles and 50 inspections behind them are ranked.
