Hi

New to this site. Soon to take delivery of a new (UK) Rav4 Dynamic AWD. Is the problem of catalytic converter theft a problem on new Rav4's in the UK?

I have read some horror stories but they seem to concern the Prius and Aurus vehicles.

Thanks in advance.

I believe much depends on where you live/ work and park.

Certainly the RAV4 membership have never as far as I know have reported Cat theft.
