Press their name.
I already decided that if my Landy does go with all the security l have on it, then l won’t replace it as there’s nothing more l could do.
So why buy another and spend thousands doing it up only to have the thieves take it whenever they want.

Same can be said about every single remotely good car.

One that ive found works well if I'm leaving it at home and not moving for a while or if I've been spooked on top of all the other security I have is low range and difflock with the steering on full lock to prevent it being dragged on to a low loader.
I've also got under the landy with a load of nuts, bolts, washers and other bits of metal and using a impact gun put a mixture of it all in different sized bolts through the UJ's to prevent them turning. This saved my ass on one occasion and I don't mind sharing it as I dont do this anymore.

Additionally
Sold secure ground anchors like for motorbikes, use different types, hardened security chains like the thatcham sold secure motorcycle anti theft stuff, secure padlocks as approved the same and chain the thing down to the drive, just don't forget and try to drive off without unlocking them or you'll be trying to tow your drive down the road

have sent you a pm
I hear what you are saying
But l’ve spent thousands getting my Defender have l want it.
So if it was stolen l would have to start again.
Where, if l bought (say) a Jeep Wrangler, then l likely wouldn’t do anything with it except maybe waxoyl it and drive it.
So if it got stolen, l could just buy another one and it would be the same.

If it's that dodgy, fit a tracker. At least you may get it back should it get nicked,provided it's missed very soon afterwards.... which it sounds like it would be.

I recall reading a post on this forum - I think - that reported the results of wiring a HUGE siren alarm to a trembler switch. The image of a tea-leaf with bleeding eardrums rolling around on the driveway still makes me chuckle.

My last line of defence is to park my wife's car right behind. It's a relatively new model with all the Bells and Sirens - nobody'd bother trying to move that.
