Locked garage. Preferably with big feral dog loose in same.
On a serious note, as many visual deterrents as you can be bothered to fit. As many non-visible modifications to the alarm and electrical systems to make the vehicle as non-standard as possible, and make sure that you have at the very least a BBUS fitted (battery-backed sounder). Secure your doors and bonnet. If you have a hardtop with those little windows in the back consider fitting mesh guards over them, ditto the rear three-quarterlights on a truck cab or DC. Park sensibly in places where tampering will be spotted and reported. Whenever possible park as close as you can on one side to a wall, on full lock, with the front wheels pressed into the wall. Also try whenever possible to park with the front of the vehicle hard up against a wall or other object so that access to the front is as difficult as you can make it. Consider fitting an aftermarket alarm, and fit at least one tracker (more than one is better since if the villains find one usually they'll stop looking). Make sure that the keys are secure and kept out of sight so that if you are burgled they cannot easily be found. If disturbed at night you need to be able to get the shotgun before the burglars find the keys. |

What about fitting one of them big fat isolator switches in the starter motor cable, hiding the switch somewhere suitable?

 seems like its a case of throw the kitchen sink at it or not subject to a risk decision on who I'm hopeing to deter. It wont fit in the garage as its too short, shame as its high enough and wide with it. Might have to see about a security post for drive at home with something for out and about. ps its a 110 XS CSW so more doors to nick and windows to break in via :/ |

Like the idea of removable steering wheel for when your parked up at home Not sure about the looks you would get if your carrying your wheel round the shops  Chris

Do the removable wheels stick out far with the fitment of the additional boss?
Wouldn't mind one I can swap between the Elise and the defender Darren |
