Thieves in Malaysia love Toyotas most
The General Insurance Association of Malaysia (PIAM) recently revealed thieves in Malaysia love Toyotas most, with the Toyota Hilux and Vellfire leading the chart in terms of theft frequency. Mitsubishi's Pajero splits the the pair to complete the top three position, according to Paultan.org.
This comes after PIAM CEO Mark Lim pointed out that the police and customs have done a good job in crippling car theft gangs and syndicates, with reported vehicle theft down 20 percent as compared to last year.
While the Vellfire is understandably high in demand, as 'towkays' in neighbouring countries love them, we were quite surprised to see the Peugeot 508 appear in the top 10 list. Elsewhere in the list, the demand for commercial vehicles like the Toyota Hilux, Mitsubishi Pajero and Nissan Vanette are a sign that these hardy vehicles are good work horses for the less developed countries.
