Mainly X5 and X6.
Once they became aware of it, bmw put a fix in place to hopefully prevent it happening in the future. This was resolved by bmw in 2011 but we all have to accept that no car is un-stealable. My mates car was lifted over a wall by a Hiab so if they are that determined you've got no chance.

Very true. All you can do is make it as hard as possible & in turn it takes time, in most cases they don't have time.
