Cars are stealing and departing from the UK for 24 hours, according to a new report that found that thefts are worth British consumers and the billions of pounds.
Organized criminal gangs lead a tide in theft of cars in the country, Royal Institute of United Services (Russia), said analytical tank of defense and security report Posted on Thursday, when the theft of cars in the UK increased by 75% in decades to approximately 130,000 cars a year.
Cars that are stolen are not just high-end cars such as Range Rovers or Rolls-Royces, but also daily models such as Ford Fiesta or Focus and Volkswagen Golf, According to data about the most stolen and models.
They can be relatively easy to break out with gangs with organized crimes that use and adapt sophisticated vehicles stealing when car manufacturers deploy counteract to steal cars.
Methods, networks, tested and proven smuggling ways mean that cars are “stolen, downloaded and excreted during the day,” Russia said in its analysis, noting that theft of vehicles is not a low level, but faster, but rather a high level of risk and interventions.
“What we really emphasize in the conclusions is the fact that it is a certain brand or model today, but if it is developed (with technological successes to combat thefts), or a change in demand, it will be another tomorrow,” said Ilya Glantz, a scientist of the team of organized crime and the police.

The criminals became hacked and more organized, capable of relatively easy to supply markets where vehicles are expensive either in insufficient food, and where demand is high for spare parts or whole vehicles.
It was said that some key export markets for stolen high cost include the United Arab Emirates, Georgia, in the Caucasus, Cyprus (which, like the UK, has a left drive) and the Congo Democratic Republic.
The total increase in the cost of spare parts and vehicles and the lack of delivery in these markets “make people look for the cheapest alternative, which in many cases can be obtained from the illegal market and initially stole from the disk,” Glazz said.
CNBC has contacted the National Agency of Crimes in the UK, an agency investigating a serious and organized crime on the report.
The cost of crime
In addition to personal expenses for stolen cars for the owners, car thefts have a significant impact on the UK drivers and a wider economy.
“Car theft now costs the UK economy about 1.77 billion pounds ($ 2.43 billion) a year and has led to an increase by 82% of car insurance quotes since 2021, and the cost of repairing, vehicles and broader economic pressure, GLANTZ and Rusi co -author Mark Wilia.
According to the estimates, the 1.77 billion pounds refers to the social and economic “crime value”, based on data collected by the UK ministries, and refers to the money coming to prevent crimes, economic damage caused by victims, whether it is commercial business or individual, and the cost of refurbishment.

“The cost of vehicles has increased, the cost of insurance has increased. Veanger manufacturers have poured a huge amount of money to save their vehicles, so the cost of the crime has increased, and the total crime has also increased. So 1.77 billion is really a very low border,” he said.
Of course, theft of cars and illegal exports are not limited to the UK – Eg-But there are some specific problems that make the UK more vulnerable to such a crime, such as its geographical location, the fact that it is an island, and priorities for a violent crime through limited budget police forces.
“The UK is obviously a world trading partner who has many interactions and trade relations with the UAE and Africa and elsewhere, and there is a point of vulnerability at the ports,” Glazz said, and the port officials spend a lot of time checking what goes into the ports, but not much time checking what is happening.
“As a result, the system is quite vulnerable,” Glantz said.
