Mitsubishi

There are a few anomalies to look at with Mitsubishi before going into the details. First of all, there are lots of names for the Shogun - including Shogun Sport and Shogun Pinin, so we've combined them all to make one entry. It’s also possible that Pajero and Shogun crimes are confused because the Pajero is an import version of the Shogun, muddying waters a little - that might explain the appearance of the Pajero at the bottom of this list.

That said, the names are quite distinct. The Pajero isn’t particularly common in the UK but it is a vulnerable vehicle – cars originally designed for the Japanese market don’t have such a high level of security gear, making them vulnerable when imported to the UK. That’s not really Mitsubishi’s fault. In further defence of the Japanese brand, if you look at a modern model like the Outlander the crime rate is lower than average. Mitsubishi also sells a lot of off-roaders, which tend to have a longer lifespan than standard hatchbacks so there are numerous old and insecure examples around.
