Hopefully it deters the chancer opportunist in terms of time and hassle to remove the car.....However I don't think professional car thieves would have a problem.....but to me its a little bit more peace of mind.

I agree that preventative measures should be taken. If it is standing for a long time, i can't see any harm in disconnecting the fuel pump relay. That provides me the peace of mind that prevents me from checking on my car at odd times of the night.
Did you purchase a specific Volvo 240 anti theft kit?
I wonder with the amount of play in the gearbox as standard with these cars whether, given enough time, a rather industrious individual might be able to figure out how to get the anti theft device off.
