Frontbum 76 Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 I think you can rig your own fuel isolator and hide it in the cab, so if they drive off they only get couple of hundred yard or so. But don't ask me how to do it. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

walshie 2,804 Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 Leave the bill for your last MOT on the passenger seat. That should put anyone off nicking it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But don't ask me how to do it. Most Landrovers normally only get a few yards anyway , why anyone would want to nick one beggars belief .. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PeskyWabbits 464 Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Land Rovers are theft magnets. They're probably more knicked for parts than to sell on. If you can make the vehicle immobile then that is your best bet. Immobile as in can't be towed, not just driven away. Remember that the thieves are probably in the trade, so be a step further on. Block it in if need be. The pedal lock is a good idea as it takes a bit of work to diffuse. My Series has more than one theft deterrent but I am still up and about when i hear noises outside. It is a shame that their popularity is their downfall 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
