Been a long time since I've been back to the UK. My sister still lives there and runs a pub in Leichester (sp).

hey speaking of that boot - is it possible to buy one with keys as an anti-theft thingie ?

looking at it, the boot hub covers the bolts so u can't just take off the wheel (duh =P ) and if ur going on a long trip that would be a really cool way to safeguard ur car

For those who are curious about the boot or wheel clamp as it is called in the uk, it is supplied with keys and folds up so it can be stored in your trunk, it stops thieves from driving the car or removing it, the centre section covers the wheel nuts so they cannot be removed.
It is a pretty cool device and the only sure way to stop those thieves in their tracks !
