Clifford have moved on from the 00's now, the one to go for is the G5 650(MkII) Comes complete with BlackJax which is a great piece of kit (as discussed in other threads)

I would have thought they are one of the most difficult cars to steal, despite being one of the most targeted? The new age ones at least are like fort knox and you would have to know what you are doing to rob it without keys.
It's always a worry for me but I like others try to park sensibly and take every precaution possible... but if someone wants something bad enough and know what they are doing they will get it I suppose... same can be said about anything.

mine was nicked back in july last year. Not a nice experience, but taught me a valuable lesson and not not trust anyone where my car is concerned.
Get as many alarms tracker and blackjax as possible and keep the car and home locked even when i am in.

I live in a high crime rate area and have had five Imprezas., my latest one being a MY03 STI, the only security I have is a Chain on the Steering wheel and a pole in the ground behind it at night and none of them have ever been touch. It had a tracker but I let it run out as I don't want it back if it gets nicked. Just won't be the same.

I had a scooby for 2 days once! Got it mapped and the same night it went!!!
Found it 3 days later with every window smashed in and the doors pulled round the wrong way!
What did i do??? Brought another one 2 days later
while my insurance messed about!
If you worry about it ul never have what you want!
So just get on with it and enjoy life!!!

As above really; it's no worse than any other 4 door performance car. If you live in an area of high car crime, then, regrettably, you're a potential target. It's just a case of taking reasonable and very visible precautions. Then you have to hope for the best....Blair's legacy: soft on crime,soft on the causes of crime......unless you're a speeding motorist!
