Good article by Hagerty on testing of steering wheel anti theft devices. https://www.hagerty.co.uk/articles/maintenance-and-gear/reviewed-and-rated-steering-wheel-locks/#:~:text=No%20thief%20would%20attempt%20to,lot%20of%20time%20and%20privacy.

There appears to be a Stoplock Pro and a Stoplock Pro Elite but I can't see the difference myself.
An interesting article all the same thank you.

According to a similar test a year earlier (by the same author), "the Pro Elite model [...] costs a tenner more than the plain Pro, but has a deeper curve in the shaft to allow it to be fitted to cars with larger wheel centres."

I bought a second-hand Disklok and I can confirm that they are heavy, very heavy, and a bit awkward to manoeuvre around the steering wheel. I use it on the Jag, a Jaguar 420, and I have to open the door to be able to fit it around the steering wheel.

I take the time to fit the Disclok and the clutch claw when parking when dog walking etc. The inconvenience of the Land Rover going walkabout far outweighs the time taken. The Land Rover is very rarely used for shopping but I ensure it's still protected.

We have a stoplock on each of our vehicles all bought secondhand for a pittance

A Jag' 420 ? Lovely !

I have to open the Land Rover door to fit the Disklok (which I've been previously spelling incorrectly) and I can't fit the Clutch Claw with the door shut either.

Yes, rather   Below's a picture of her near the Jaguar stand at the British Auto Jumble in Waalwijk, earlier this year. Only three years apart, the 1964 Series 2a and the 1967 420, but worlds apart in driving experience...

I'd rather have a little inconvenience often, than that big inconvenience once 😉

The Clutch Claw is invisible until the door is forced open whereas the Disklok is clearly visible.
