Park it somewhere visible so it deters the opportunists, any visual deterrent is better than none. All the obvious really - don't leave anything inside the car that could be nicked - CD's etc.
Not relevant for your hols, but I have a retractable hardened steel post on my drive, and a steering wheel lock etc etc.

I wouldnt put a disk lok on if its parked outside my house or where im staying. They come along, they get in , they cant get the lock off so they and find you to get it off for them. If they want it let them have it but you dont want them coming to you for sure.

I can't see a lowlife wanting to put that much effort into finding your Scooby in the Lake(s)
