first things first
Halfords
£80
No (came out 2nd to autolock 2000 in A'express test due to faulty unit) I have had both and would choose the disklock every time Much more of a visable deterrent, bigger but you soon get used to it.

I use a disc lock, but beware.
They have velcro at the opening end, I imagine to keep it shut when not in use. The velcro got stuck fast when I tried to open the disc lock to put on the steering wheel.
A bit of extra effort saw the half in my right hand connect squarely with my chin, rendering me almost unconsious.
Anyone could have dragged me out of the car and drove away in it....
But, it makes me feel much better about leaving my scoob.

Aero - plonker!! 
I think the big yellow disk on your wheel is a great deterrant. And as others have said it's dead easy to put on/take off. Mine goes under the passenger seat (rear) when I'm driving. The only time it's a hassle is when I have passengers in the back.
Rang the makers themselves and got a *reconditioned* one for £45 all in... hee hee

Steve Williams,
Do you mean its loud when you release the spring?
I always hold the lever and move it back by hand. I had read about someone unlocking theirs and it broke into pieces (the spring-lock-device thingy
)

No I mean it is visually loud, as in "I've had a heavy night, who turned on the lights" loud
I would have thought that the construction was strong enough to let the spring release without holding it.
