Coventry recorded 862 car thefts in 2024, here is how to not become a statistic
Coventry’s position on the M6 corridor makes it a genuine target for organised vehicle theft, even though the city ranks well overall for general safety. LockCar fits hidden immobilisers across Coventry at your home or workplace.
A safer city overall, but not for parked cars
According to DVLA data analysed by the RAC in 2025, 862 cars were reported stolen in Coventry in 2024, placing it among the more frequently targeted UK cities for vehicle theft.* Coventry’s location on the M6 gives thieves rapid access to wider routes, which analysts point to as a factor in why vehicle crime here runs ahead of the city’s otherwise strong general safety record.*
More recent local reporting shows theft from vehicles in Coventry falling, down 20.8% year on year according to West Midlands Police figures.* That is genuinely encouraging, but a falling trend does not mean the underlying methods, relay attacks and key cloning, have gone away. It means fewer cars are being caught out by them, which is exactly the outcome a hidden immobiliser is designed to support.

Matching the device to your car and budget
CAN-IMMO is a CAN bus, LIN bus and ADC bus PIN immobiliser controlled from a smartphone app, with an optional Bluetooth TAG for hands-free disarming. MCU based models like the IS357 add a TAG fob and anti-hijack protection as standard for a fully hands-free setup from day one.
A falling theft trend is good news, but it reflects fewer successful thefts, not fewer attempts. A hidden immobiliser is what keeps you on the right side of that number.
