Vehicle theft is falling across the region, which is not the same as being over
Sutton Coldfield’s leafy, higher value residential streets sit within the same West Midlands Police area that recorded over 12,000 vehicle thefts in 2025. LockCar fits hidden immobilisers across the town, at your home or workplace.
A genuine improvement, not a reason to relax
West Midlands Police recorded 12,196 vehicle theft offences in 2025, down from 13,375 in 2024 and 14,441 in 2023, a 15.5% fall over two years according to the region’s Police and Crime Commissioner.* Sutton Coldfield sits within this same force area, and while there is no separately published theft count specific to the town, it shares the regional risk profile that comes with a concentration of higher value, keyless vehicles.
The PCC’s own Vehicle Theft Index 2026 also flags that while Ford remains the most stolen brand overall, thefts of some other brands, Mitsubishi in particular, have risen sharply, a reminder that the underlying methods keep shifting even as the total trend improves.*
