Hi peeps,
just been talking to a mate who says some C**NTS tried stealing his 95 WRX from his drive - popped the drivers lock but they couldnt get past the disklok.....
He said they had tried to lift it off the steering wheel with no luck, then they must have tried to seperate it from the middle by sticking screw drives in it as it looks as though it has been stabbed.....
only thing is he may need to buy another steering wheel as when they 'played' with the disklok they have bent the steering wheel....
best £80 he has spent on the car

Raf.
p.s. the car was only imported a month ago so he didnt have time to get an alarm/immobiliser fitted yet.

 

Pity he didn't catch the *******s, then he could have bent the disklok over their heads.

Andy.

 

Shame his disklok wasn't wired up to the mains electric!!

 

disc locks rule!!!!

 

Buy one from Costco and I think they're only £35 - £40.

 

I can vouch for DiscLok...don't lose the keys or its 3 to 4 hours of v hard work

 

ive got one . its a must! i read it took 5 firemen 20 mins to get one off

 

disc lock rules!!! i have one; had it for like 4 years, on my mr2 turbo, 200sx turbo and still living. It worth every penny of the £80 i spent then but now its £44 from costco. ADVICE BUY ONE KNOWWWWW

 

Dipole Lock is easier to use, not sure if there is anyway around it whatsoever apart from putting the car on a flat bed trailor!

 

I hope they cut their hands to piece's trying to get the disk lock off!!

I think just seeing the damn thing would put most thieves off straight away but i guess you will always get the "have a go" ones I have one and always put it on, i swear by mine

 

I got the place I bought my car from to fit one in the week between me looking at my car and going to pick it up. It only takes a day to fit a good one.

 

Carl2 - My mate imported it in himself and hadn't got round to fitting an alarm....
Can someone post a link as to where i can get Disklok's from for £44...
had a go but cant get past the Costco site...

Cheers (in advance)
Raf

 

http://www.costco.co.uk/ and where do you live also you need to be a member aswell

 

failing that I think there only £60 in Halfrauds™.
the silver one is nice, the yellow one more visible.

Andy (silver one)

 

Now theres a idea

1 plug
20m of mains cable
1 quick disconnect connector

think it might just work

 

And another tip when using a disc-lok is ....make sure you put the steering to full lock(towards the kerb is better),then if access is gained your car cannot be towed straight
or put onto a trailer very easily.
The car would have to be winched and believe me it's not easy with wheels on full lock!! (i found this out when trying to recover damaged cars with bent/damaged steering)

I would be worried about 240 volts going through the 'frail' subaru electrics!!

 

Good Tip, Never thought of that.

The diskloc was one of the first things i bought for my scoob, bit big and bulky but worth it.

 

i always leave mine on full locl and always fit the disclock

disclocks are the daddy

 

but what happens if you have alloys; you can scratch them or even kurb them

 

Only if you drive off with the steering locked.

 

My mate always says 'how can you be bothered putting that on all the time' - just said you do it so regular you forget and it becomes routine.

Well worth the money IMO - good visual f-off to the low level scum.

 

True dont even realise i'm doing it half the time.

 

After asking around and reading a few threads on here I went out this lunch time and bought one. They were on offer at Halfords at £65. No costco nearby as far as I know.

My dad saw it tonight when I called round and told me I am being paranoid

 

Disklocks rule....

and as the Costco near Reading was clearing out stock....a mate spotted em and I got mine for £15

but worth 40 or 60 or whatever you spend...visible and tough

 

Wouldnt say you were being paranoid mate,just carefull!!

 

I am putting it on when I park in the garage too

Good price!

 

Is there anyone on here that has suffered theft of the vehicle even with the disklock in place?? just wondering if they are "that" effective

 

Gives you something to do whilst waiting for the turbo to cool down
