They seem to be disappearing around our area (Birmingham). One last night on the local Facebook group. 70 plate. Mine is an 18 plate with no keyless or start button etc. Are the 70 plates keyless? Is mine still easy to steal? I've just ordered a disklok.

The short answer is to a determined thief they are all easy to steal . Get yourself a pedal lok to compliment the disk lok

66 plate and a 70 plate stolen 2 roads away from me last night. I'm getting paranoid. How are they stealing a 66 plate it has no keyless or push buttons technology. I thought cars were harder to steal these days except keyless stuff which is obviously easy.

They might end up doing you a favour,

The 2 people I know with Ford Rangers have had nothing but problems once they turned 3 years old and the warranty ended.

Get a Milenco commercial steering wheel lock.

A good visual deterrent and Police approved.
