That's a bit random

Was reading all the stolen car threads and seems to be un heard of up here just wondered.

99.9% chance hundreds are stolen . Gotta remember when people get their cars stolen its only the VERY annoyed who post in this section . Lots of others just don't bother , and then there's the thousands who don't bother using enthusiasts sites at all .

My guess is it's just the same as everywhere else .

What is your source??

Sorry I do apologise

HULL is the UK car crime capital

'SCotland' is a bit vague geographically speaking to make a sweeping statement.

Down in the depths of Logie (a very deprived area of aberdeen, where there are more wooden boards than glass panes) your CTR might last about a few hours before it dissapeared. However some areas in aberdeen or scotland-wide i know of people who dont even lock their cars or houses at night.
Each area is completely different and its too hard to comment on an actual whole country to give an educated answer.

Theres very little car crime in Aberdeen hence the low insurance banding.

How do you think we all got CTR's in the first place?

Yeah, its seen as a low risk area as opposed to other areas around the UK.
