The chap just down the road from me had his caravan stolen last year. He was in the garden one day and 4 men in a 4x4 drove by slowly a few times (we live in a cul de sac) and then stopped wound the window down and asked if he wanted to sell it - he said no and they drove off. The following morning it was gone. Parked just outside of his bungalow bedroom and he didn't hear a thing. Had a wheel clamp and tow hitch lock on too. Police weren't interested even though he could give a description of the men and 4x4.

OK not an old car theft but shows how determined criminals can be quite brazen and resourceful.

As for my 240 - I think I will buy a Clutch Claw. At least its a deterrent if nothing else.
