Least desired by thieves

According to the Metro, the winner is the Ford Ka, with a grand total of zero stolen since it came out. (New version not the original). Was even beaten by the mighty Daiwoo Matiz!

I wonder how many Veyrons, McLaren F1s etc have been stolen then?. They wouldn't be the target for the usual TWOCer and even with regards to a pro-thief, the owners of such cars can usually afford top notch security with them garaged etc.

When did the new Ka come out?, I find it difficult to believe none have been stolen

I know of three as they ended up in my local breakers yard. Le Metro acurate as ever.

An F1 was stolen in the pilot episode of 'Bugs' in 1995

I'd imagine very few. The risk/reward would be too low on something like that.

They also seemed to say the Yaris was the most nicked car. Really? 1 in 250 nicked. Is that some kind of TWOCer joke that us non-TWOCers don't get?

I'd suggest the article is upholding the usual standard of journalism in the Metro - i.e. st

Any one have a link to the article?.

A mates Ka was nicked from Newcastle a good few years ago.

The new one hasn't even been out for a good few years yet...

There would need to be new KA's in population before someone could steal it. I cant remember the last time i seen a new style KA.

That'll be because I didn't spot the 'new model' bit. Apologies for any premature wear on your '.' key caused.

Really? I wish I couldn't remember, they're bloody everywhere around here. In fact, I can see two out of my window now.

Not on my drive, I might add

I don't really seem to notice the new Ka's they look similar to the new shape vauxhall corsa's




So I don't realise it's a Ka until I look at the badge.

[Evangelion]

And they both look so horrible to me that I can't understand why anyone would want to nick either of them!

[McSam]

Actually, they're more similar than I expected when you look at those two photos.

Not much chance of doing it on the road, though, because the size and proportions are totally different!

There was a Veyron Grand Sport stolen in Switzerland not too long ago.

So you're one of those who are so inconsiderate you dont even park on your drive then?

I think for project mayhem homework we should all go out and steal a Ford Ka (new shape). One slight problem, I think the Ph members surpas the amount of Ka's on the road.
