Apparently (www.statista.com/statistics/303551/motor-vehicle-theft-in-england-and-wales/):
There were over 113 thousand motor vehicle thefts in England and Wales in 2019/20, a fall of 1.33 thousand when compared with the previous year. Despite recent increases in this type of offence, there were still fewer vehicle thefts than there were in 2002/03 when there were almost 307 thousand. This was followed by a steep ten-year decline which saw vehicle thefts reduced to just 70 thousand in 2013/14.
The sharp fall in motor vehicle thefts seen between 2002/03 and the mid-2010s, followed by a sudden increase in recent years tracks a pattern that can be observed in the overall crime figures for the United Kingdom In total, there were approximately 5.87 million crime offences in 2017/18, an increase of 1.43 million offences when compared with 2013/14.
