If you want to
protect the valuables that remain in your car
when you leave it, you'll need a good Car Safe
 |
|
According to the latest AA
statistics - in the UK alone, there is a theft from a vehicle every
13 seconds!
That amounts to
over 2 million
thefts from vehicles in the UK every year
...and the sad fact is that whatever the time and wherever you are, your
vehicle is at risk

| How
do you protect your "Satnav" or other valuables such as
your digital camera, PDA, etc. when you leave them in your
car?
Obviously hiding them out of sight in a glove compartment or your
boot may make them less obvious, but will offer little protection
against the opportunist thief breaking in to your vehicle.
Losing some items could be a real headache (do you for instance have
all the names, notes and contact details stored on your mobile phone
backed up so that you could easily reinstate them into a replacement
phone if yours was stolen?), while losing other items may prove to
be just a costly mistake.
But I'm Insured I hear you shout!
That's great! but most people find that their insurance
"Excess" coupled with increased insurance premiums at the
next renewal, often make it simply uneconomic to claim - in which
case the financial loss would hit you directly
...and the replacement cost would come straight out of your
pocket!
...however, the good news is that there are
currently some simple, effective and easily affordable vehicle
security safe products available, that could help you to protect
your valuables.
Here are some practical car safes which we think offer really
great value for money and are convenient to use...
