Alfa Romeo secured by a Disklok

Car crime has gone hi-tech and thefts have doubled

Car thefts in the UK have nearly doubled over the last 5 years and this is partially linked to the rise in keyless car entry systems on modern premium vehicles. Classic cars and modern classics value has also exploded since the financial crash with a strong enthusiast and collector market, giving rise to greater car crime.

Official UK stats show a 50% rise from 111,999 cars stolen in 2017-18, up from 75,308 in 2013-14. This means that over 300 cars are nicked every single day on our little island*. Pretty shocking, hey?

We have outlined below how you can protect yourself against this threat in a simple and very cost effective manner, by using a Disklok Steering Wheel Lock.

You can also see what we said about this matter to the temporary car insurance company Dayinsure in a recent article published by the firm by clicking here. It's full of helpful tips!

Simple yet highly effective

Carnoisseur have a long history of offering quality products to help keep your car safe. Having tested and fitted hundreds of alarms and immobilisers over the years, arguably the most effective tool we have come across and continue to sell today, is the simple but effective Disklok Steering Wheel Lock. It's also a very affordable option and requires no professional fitting - simple yet effective security.

Here's the gist… if the nasty thief can't steer the car, they can't drive it away. Therefore getting around keyless entry and keyless starter systems is rendered pointless. It is easy to fit, taking a matter of seconds, and can be adjusted to fit your specific vehicle.

The Disklok is unique, and patent protected, so you won't see any other copies. The ultra-tough steel case covers the entire steering wheel and locks securely in place. Don't worry, you get three spare keys – whatever you do don't lose them all whilst fitted!


The original and still the best available

Other steering wheel locks secure firmly and jam the car's steering, but you can remove them by cutting the steering wheel. Disklok is different, you literally can not get to the wheel.

Better still, the steel case doesn't attach to the steering wheel. So, no risk of damage to your beautiful leather or wooden rim and no way of forcing the steering wheel or column whilst attached.

Yes, the item is pretty big and bulky, but this is also it's advantage. It's highly visible from outside the vehicle, so helps avoid a forced entry in the first place and is available in bright Yellow or a more subtle Silver option.

This security device has been rigorously tested by numerous independent organisations and have all seen the Disklok come out on top for "attack time" and value for money. It is the winner of multiple awards including the What Car? Security Award, has received Sold Secure's Automotive Gold accreditation. Also the Secured by Design accreditation means it is approved and used by the Police.


Plenty of Options

Choose your colour, Silver or Yellow. Measure your steering wheel to get the right size Disklok; 35cm to 39cm diameter steering wheel is a Small Disklok, 39cm to 41.5cm is Medium and 41.5cm to 44cm is the Large option.

Carnoisseur also offer handy options to add on a soft stretch steering wheel cover, for extra scuff protection when fitting or if someone does spin the Disklok whilst fitted. There is also a super handy durable storage bag. Look out for these simple options when ordering.

Disklok is a British company, manufactured to the highest standards and backed by a 3-year Guarantee.
