Last year, nearly 5,000 cars were stolen across Ireland – making it the worst year for car thefts in more than a decade.


Opportunists and joyriders have always stolen cars but what is new, according to Conor Lally, is the gangs now operating across the country. They typically steal high-value cars, bring them to remote chop shops, break up the cars and export the parts.


Lally explains how are they doing it and how owners can keep their cars safe?


Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by Suzanne Brennan.
