Can anyone advise me on the best way to secure our motor home? Will a crook lock type of devise help? We are buying a MH next week, cant wait, but do have concerns about leaving the vehicle un attended while we go off exploring

We use a Krooklok on the steering wheel and also a wheel clamp for one of the wheels. This is in addition to the alarm that is fitted. Any visible security measures are always a good deterrent but to be honest "if somebody wants it, they will take it".

Good luck and enjoy your motorhome

well to be honest the only way to be sure is with a thacham approved immobiliser fitted but as to if it's worth it?only you can deside.saying that the more locks you put on the less intrested they will be in nicking it.

Thank you both, much appreciated, good advice. Being new to this, i need to ask. im having nightmares and we hav'nt even picked the MH up yet. By 6pm tommorow we will be owners of our 'new life' on wheels. I cant bear the thought of someone stealing the thing, ive been burgled 2x from my home before, i remember the feeling xx
