What you all using? My go to is Ghost however I'm being told it either won't work or will trigger error codes that can only be cleared at the dealers.

Nothing tech at all here.
Security post or 2 second car blocking the drive at home and a disklock when I'm out - when I can be arsed to use it.
I live near Solihull and car crime is pretty bad but so far it's mostly all 4X4s or hot hatches. Pals with Range Rovers are having increasing insurance issues even getting cover. There is a separate topic on this elsewhere which makes interesting reading.

When I want some extra security I use a pedal lock, about £10 from ebay.
Simple U shaped strip that fits over the pedal arm down to the floor then a lock under the pedal that stops the pedal being pushed.
Can be a little awkward to get on/off but very effective

I am choosing to naively believe that there isn't a black market for A110s and thus security isn't a concern. I park my car in an unsecured residential car park in South London and I'm more worried about tree pollen than security. Is anyone aware of much theft of our cars in the UK?

I’ve not heard of any touch wood…

As said before - another measure is to ensure you lock the car with the fob and then press the fob lock again- that disables the keyless access until the fob opens the car again.
