There was a recent debate on here about the best way of protecting your landy. For those of you that wish to know. The following methods have now been tried and tested thanks to the thieving scum that attacked mine last night.
1) relocated alarm siren unit.-unsuccessful-They still got at it
2) Standard immobiliser-not bad but still Semi bypassed
3) Isolated earth with small bypass wire-successful
4) Chub lock on rear door-successful
End result:
They fooked up my alarm siren, Bent both the top and bottom of the passenger door out and bypassed the wire to the starter but not the fuel pump solonoid. On trying to start it it killed the earth fuse to the dash accessories. They then snapped the steering lock and pushed it down the road to try and bump start it. They then tried to get into the rear door. the standard landy lock is no more but the chubb household lock held out. Unable to get it going they lit a bonfire on the drivers floor. Luckily for me the drivers door leaks like a sieve and The floor mats were still soaking wet from salisbury last week so the fire didn't take hold. The dash is a gonner and it will be an insurance write off. I am now awaiting the insurance company to come and look at it. I will be buying it back and it will go back on the road. Unlike the scum that did it if I get my hands on them.
