Hi

Never thought about this before but getting a bit paranoid now that the Daily Mail is reporting on the surge in thefts of Defenders....

Does anyone have any recommendations on the best steering wheel lock to buy and do they tend to fit all cars? My car is a 56 plate td5 90XS if that makes any difference, no air bag and the horn is on a stalk rather than the centre of the wheel. Halfords have this one

probably at the discount end so are dearer ones any better, any feedback or recommendations much appreciated.

Thanks

Phil

Yep. Disklock.
Difficult enough even when you have the key.

I have a disclock - http://www.halfords.com/camping-car-seats/security...

It's a bit of a faff to take on and off, but better safe than sorry.

If you haven't got an airbag or steering wheel mounted horn, have you considered getting a quick release removable steering wheel boss?

I have had these on a couple of cars and they are great. They will struggle to nick your car if they can't drive it.
