What is a good security for a first car! Does it need protection! Wheel clamps etc.

Depending what car it is you may not need any security otherwise a steering wheel lock and an alarm are all good. Mind you if it's a nice car and the thief is determined NOTHING will stop them from taking it. Good luck whatever you decide to do. :o)

Or a Multipla.You could leave that unlocked, windows down, keys in the ignition and your handbag on the front seat.and no one will go near it.

Can't say you would not be tempted though.

No reply on what the car is! Makes a huge difference. Steering wheel lock is no match for a hacksaw through the steering wheel!

If they want it, they'll take it. Full insurance is the best security.
That and don't put bling bling mag wheels on it.

It depends completely on what type of car it is and the risks associated with it. If you don't leave stuff on seats inside, don't have a fancy looking stereo and its not a high risk car then chances are it will be fine. Cars which have transponder keys are much more theft resistant than those without.
GPS trackers are cheap, if your car is high risk then definitely recommend one. You just txt a number and it will reply with location information as long as it has GSM reception. works using a vodafone or 2degrees sim card.

Well done on getting the car. :) - Have a chat to the insurance company about what they recommend if you are still worried. :)

I like the steering locks, Protecta locks, they are about $30 from Warehouse and come with a free insurance for the first year. But you can get any alarm system is ok.it's the noise thats a deterent.
