Securing your vehicle

jackknewman · 05-17-2021, 08:54 AM

Hi guys,

I live in the UK and have an M235i coming later this year on a lease deal. I'm wondering what security features you have for your vehicles?

I'm obviously going to buy a faraday pouch for both keys

Does anyone recommend others such as:
Steering wheel locks
Ghost immobiliser
Other branded alarms

Thanks

I am seriously considering a disklock to also prevent airbag theft. Anyone got one of these and what size did you get?

Im using Stoplock Pro Elite I did have just the Pro version but found it to be little too tie fit and was worried it mite mark the leather so went for the bigger size lock.

I have also tried the stoplock on a previous vehicle and it marked the wheel. With the disklok you can also purchase a protective cover for the steering wheel..
