Oh dear.... :giggle:
These muppets demonstrate three things;
1) The Disklok can be defeated - could be an expensive false sense of security. :facepalm:
2) Single bar "Club" type locks can be easily defeated with a cheap cordless drill to drill out the lock mechanism. :lipssealed...
Copy that!
I see that SCA sell the larger "Pro Elite" version.
For anyone else playing along at home, you can see the "S bend" is more pronounced on the Elite version. It's also 25.4mm longer to accommodate larger steering wheels. (That's 1" longer for y'all who don't do metric)...
Frostee, I'm looking at a good 'ol steering wheel lock myself.
The steering wheel airbag cover protrudes quite a bit, so I can see why you chose the Stoplock, although the lock part is rather large and "bulbous".
How have you found this to use on a regular basis?
Did you consider any others...
You don't have power-folding mirrors like we get down under?
I always look for the mirrors folding in, when leaving the vehicle as confirmation it's locked.
FYI.
Would be hideously expensive to buy through an Aussie Ford dealer, I'd reckon. :whew:

Hi all
As per signature, I have a MY24.5 S650 GT with 6-speed manual gearbox.
I know when the vehicle has not been driven for 15+ days, you get the Ford Pass app "Remote features disabled to preserve battery" notification.
And this notification:
These notifications are time-based...
Two cartons of beer then. :giggle:
I'll try to remember to give the internal navigation a try in the next few weeks, just for the hell of it, so I can say "been there, done that".
I need to get to Boxing Day without any speeding infringements.
That will mark 3 years of being a good boy, and...
Published two months ago, but I've only just stumbled across this video from Waxit.
Coincidentally, I was procrastinating over their Enthusiasts Car Polishing Kit a few weeks ago when they were on special. This seems like a good entry level kit to go even further down the wabbit hole...
Same here!
It's taken almost a year to spot another S650 in my local area.
I spied a Grabber Blue GT at my local shopping center 4 days ago.
With plates "PONY 001" obviously an enthusiast.
This is first time I have seen a GB Mustang in the flesh, and it certainly catches the eye.
I'm...
1 Year of Ownership Approaching
Got this email today.
Can't say I've ever used the internal navigation, ever.
Won't miss it.
I don't know how much the subscription is, but I cannot imagine anyone paying for this. :crazy:
Considering the car has wireless phone connectivity and we have...
Driving in Morocco
We were recently tripping around Morocco for 3 weeks.
Whilst we were in Marrakesh, part of that included renting a car for three days so we could get out and do a full-day hike at Monkey Finger Canon at Ait Ouglif.
It's actually well over a 6 hour trip, especially if you...
Thinking about this more....
I have always dried my MF towels in the tumble dryer on "delicates" mode.
ie; virtually no heat, just spinning in air.
I did purchase a cheapo clothes drying rack several weeks ago from Bunnings, specifically for the MF towels. Have yet to use it.
But I just...
Thanks D, much appreciated. :like:
This post is my detailing bible.
Playing catch up here, after being away for 3 weeks in Morocco. :wait:
As before, I've done a cut 'n paste into a Word doc and printed as a PDF.
