Re: Car thefts - securing your F-Type

I saw a picture of someone's obd recently online where they had just removed the obd socket from its holder and put a padlock over the obd socket front face . Dirt cheap and effective but unfortunately I can't find the image.

Re: Ghost immobiliser

No offence taken .There are times when I would like to be picked up from the pub in the jag , after all whenever she goes out I end up being the taxi for her although I usually have to drive her car as it has more seats for her mates.
