I bought the Metro... Tell someone you love them today because life is short.

I reckon that report must be a good 5-8 years old now (just simply as it talks about the Disklok being the 2003 champion).

I wonder how much these things have actually moved on and is there a more date comparison? For example, Thatcham only approve the Metro Stoplok pro at the moment (they deleted the Disklok from the approved list a while back) but on the auto express report, it's Censored compared to the Disklok and the Stoplok Ultima.

I still think the Disklok is a useful bit of kit but like all these locks, needs to be used in conjunction with other layers Thumbs Up

I actually had to buy my Ultima second-hand from a car-hire company. Haven't seen one since.
I think it's so f Censored ing large, I doubt most people would want to store one in their cars - not a good selling point.
Seriously visual deterrent though Thumbs Up Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
