Surely a vehicle of this age would have a steering lock?

suppose it's a good argument for a tracker type locator (having suffered the theft of a car before I do have every sympathy with Scott2015)

Nowadays almost a necessity for anything of value. Even an iPad can be tracked.

A friend of mine had a speedboat stolen from his drive even though the trailer had wheel clamps. It is always so easy to be wise after the event.

I have a Disklok for my W124 Merc. I use it no matter how safe a location might appear to be. Putting it on, wherever parked, is habit forming.

The usual supects just lift the things with a hiab where they can get access, you'd need to secure the vehicle to the concrete with ships anchor chains and even then they'd just use a disc cutter, if they want it its gone, the tragedy is that no one apart from normal people like us cares a jot, stop them physically in the act and you're arrested before you know it, and you risk retribution from their hordes such as having your house torched.

White painted lorry light bars flashing, two shaven headed blokes in official looking hi vis, epaulats on their black jumpers, there's never a policeman about doing beat work, who's going to question them?

Its just another symptom of a sick materialistic society where few in a position of power or authority actually care that the country they administer poorly either as politicians or apparatchiks is disappearing upside down round the U bend...the old theory about those who desire power being disqualified from ever having any still true.

As some of the comments below the article suggest, it has limited meaning i.e. cars with trackers only, but why is it 3 years out of date?

My father drove lorries many years ago. One he was driving was stolen along with his wallet by members of that community.

It was visible at their camp, from the police helicopter. The police refused to go in and get either the lorry orthe wallet.

So you might know where the vehicle is. So what?
