guess it's slightly better than being fully stolen... odd they didn't just drive away with it

For years I've wanted a Defender, but with the rise in Defender theft (and it'll get worse when production stops) what's the point

They were pretty damn quick spannering to remove all that at the side of a road without being noticed or caught! Unbelievable

true but I cant imagine it would be hard to have a few blocks to hold it nor a race jack or something for lifting

I was going to replace the wings and re-skin the doors on my heap but I'm wondering if leaving it all dented might make it less desirable to thieves..
Both wings are like this, door have decent dents in, bonnet has been walked on... got ****ty modulars, well used Special Tracks and them uber-ugly arches... would you steal it?

Mine looks like a pile of crap which probably puts people off knicking it. It just needs a paint and a few rusty bits sorting though

I always make sure that mine is seen regularly with the bonnet up, a wheel or wheels off, and lots of grinding noises .. locals think it's a ****-heap ..
Acksherlly, it is a ****-heap, but it's my ****-heap, and I intend to keep it that way ...

Wheel bolts tend to make a high pitched squeek when you remove them also tyres don't sell fast enough!

Worse the human body is designed to react to high pitch noises(so babys crying wakes us up). Also tyres will be more recognizable if you try and resell

Actually that's mine near enough every night too.I always make sure that mine is seen regularly with the bonnet up, a wheel or wheels off, and lots of grinding noises .. locals think it's a ****-heap ..

Mine certainly dont
I guess if I wanted to I could remove a wheel in relative silence
