Interestingly it looks like our cars are pretty much safe as the thieves want “clean” cats and so are targeting Hybrid cars as their cats are used less.

Nope, had the cat stolen off of my ZT late year whilst it was parked outside.
They clearly had to jack the car up to get at it as I couldn't even scramble underneath to find out what had gone wrong.
I also had trouble getting a replacement as you can't get the front section anymore - the pattern part I got was just single skin and didn't have holes for both sensors. Ended up getting a good second hand section from a trader on here.
