Loads of stuff out there mate.

 

I've got an A-series spares alarm to fit, but I'll be fitting a tracker too.

Toad are good alarms, can be a bit pricey but with alarms you get what you pay for. Try to go for one with battery back-up sounder. I cant beleive every mini owner has,nt got an alarm fitted.

Unless its a very good alarm with tilt sensors and such, then it wont make any difference. If they want your car they will take it, sadly. I dont think cars are really stolen for joyriding anymore, maybe a small percentage, but most cars i would say are stolen to order / export or break for parts. These professional criminals will take your car whatever.

 

Alot of measures can be taken at no cost. Blocking the vehicle in on a driveway with another vehicle, removal of the rotor arm and such like.

Its also sandwiched between the Volvo and caravan too, and my little trailer I use for tip runs is also connected to it - and locked to the towbar... it aint going anywhere without a lot of noise being made.... LOL
