Ill say this every time I read about someone looking at buying an ALKO Wheel Lock.

ALKO Wheel Locks are good and obviously give you some discount on insurance, but they have two major flaws:

1: They are an absolute nightmare to fit, once you get the knack they can be still tricky to fit, especially if they are on a twin axle.

2: They are extremely expensive for what you get, and you can get virtually the same security system for much cheaper. Ok you don't get the nice discount, but if that equates to just a few pounds a year, is it really worth spending roughly £300 to save £15 a year compared to spending £110 and not getting that saving?

The good thing with these nemesis wheel locks is that they don't need a receiver added to a caravan. I currently use it and it works a treat, literally seconds to fit and remove. Compare this to the ALKO one which I saw someone using on a trip recently, it took him ten minutes to fit and a big argument with his wife.

To be fair though I would say that the gentleman trying to use it didn't have a motor mover, which would probably make it much easier.
