I'm looking to buy a rangie, in fact looking at one this weekend. It's a 2010 with push and go. I know they are pretty much secure but reading around I've read cars going walkabouts without the key fob. I used to have a cossie and I fitted an immobilizer on it were you touched a little key fob thingy with brass connectors to a female adapter in the dash. So in other words if you had the keys but not the little thingy it wouldn't start. I kept the immobilizer on a different set of keys to my car keys.
Has anyone fitted something similar to their rangie or is there anything on the market that someone as seen that would do the same.

Hidden immobilizer switch or...

Not going to go into it in depth on here but it doesn't matter what you put on it, they will take it if they want it, they can beat anything you can add, in fact they don't have to beat it because the method they use will bypass anything you add to it...

Get a tracker, that's about the best bet, mind you they can get round them as well....

Just get good insurance...... or Paul's idea about the dog... Pete

The FFRR can even prevent the valid owner from starting it (especially thinking about the Steering Interlock ECU going faulty, and a host of other things)

So you may be lucky and when they come to nick it, a perfect storm will take place and no one will be able to move it.  Howard

It's OK after complaints from car thieves Land Rover removed the steering lock on the later ones so it's much easier for them now....  Pete

Tracker idea sounds good.
You want the To know the car will be more trouble than it's worth. What about one of those wheel clamp thingies?

Cheers for the replies. Like the dog option like you say if they want it I suppose it would go. Tracker seems an idea if they ain't got anything to block the signal. If they get it started the tracker will believe its owner will have started it but if they lift it the tracker will alert the tracking centre that it's moving without the engine running.
Suppose I could leave the towing hook in place at the front, that would have them thinking it's a non runner.

Pop up posts for the driveway and tracker would be my thoughts.

The other thing is, the more you do to stop them and that they can see, the more interested in it they will be

One thing you could try is leaving it very dirty and covered in mud and muck. They'll think its a dog and leave well alone  FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's
