Why no security section or stickies?
Hi,

I am looking to purchase a Defender 110 soon, and have been a member on here for quite a while, reading as much as I can trying to get as much advice as possible.
It is an excellent forum, everyone seems friendly and you all have good ideas etc etc.

The one thing through reading the posts about purchasing a Defender that always comes up is to get some decent security as a priority, yet I am amazed there is no section on security and no stickies that I can find.

Am I being blind? Have I missed it or have I misread the posts and security is not that high up the priority list.

Anyway, there are loads of advice which I am still trying to take it all in, hopefully will have a 110 soon.

Cheers
Daren

Do a search under 'layers' there's plenty of invaluable information in the threads that come up! Thumbs Up If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

A section on security might not be a bad idea as sometimes threads getting mixed in with other ones and you miss them. A search is good, but a section for security might better then you can search just the security section? 1999 Defender TD5 110

Then there is a great info section for thieves to check out possible items to overcome.

Public site this is so it could happen.

There is also the Landywatch forum that you can look at, not very busy as it deals with the security side only but still worth visiting. ONE LIFE, GET IT!

Apologies for posting in the wrong section Embarassed

None of my comments were a criticism, just an observation or maybe a suggestion.

I have used the search facility and found loads of ideas on the security front, which I will be looking into once I find the right Defender.

You raised a reasonable question Daren, don't worry. It's one area Defender owners are very sensitive about and OpSec is all important. Basically, First rule of Defender Security? Don't talk openly about Defender security. Wink

Visual deterrent, physical barrier, tracker. That's it really. How you do it is up to you. Thumbs Up New project and it's green: www.projectoverland.info
