Residents are still encouraged to make sure they use preventative measures to help reduce the chances of their vehicles being stolen.

Hertfordshire Constabulary advises:

* Park a second car in front of your Range Rover.

* Park it close to movement activated lights.

* Use a crook lock.

* Look at options to either upgrade or install tracker systems.

* Keep your keys in a faraday bag even when you are out of the house to avoid your key being cloned.
