An extra security layer?
I spotted this today and, despite no shortage of parking space, it seemed to have been deliberately blocked in. Probably to stop it going missing? I’m just not sure how practical it would be to take 2 extra cars everywhere with you?

He did well if he parked it between them two Bow down series Land Rovers are very easy to steal I once had an X/MOD series 2a that didn’t even have door locks, but then I don’t suppose you want to be faffing about with locks if someone is shooting at you ! 2005 Td5 90 XS

Pull the red lever back and you would easily shunt both those cars into next week.
