A fiat... !!!
Anything can be stolen but when you see motorhome stolen posts most are Ford based...

Invest in the Strikeback Growler for that additional layer of defence....

Can autotrail afford to use Ford base vans ?

Quite glad its a fiat (but still sorry for the owners and sad anyone gets stolen). As a ford owner it gets a bit repetitive when the old its a ford again comments come out. Having hired a pegeot van last week to move some stuff and seen the quality of the switchgear and gearchange I can see why people steal fords instead!!

The ford based chaussons are a grand or so cheaper than their fiat versions

It doesn't really make a bit of difference what manufacturer or model it is, someone has lost there pride and joy.
Personally if I caught 'em id cut there flipping hands off!
We need to carry half a dozen of these.......

It would be interesting to know what percentage of stolen motorhomes have been from houses with dogs. Not that all gogs are very good at alerting owners, but if the thieves have cased the place and see a dog they will not know how good a guard dog it is, so maybe move on somewhere else.

Yes I can remember a few years ago, the toerags raided a caravan dealer not so far away. It was found after the event that they had wrapped chains around the A frames and dragged them off behind lorries. We just all have to do our best to be on our guards and keep them as secure as we can within the bounds of sensibility.

There was a system that simulated a dog being in the van once, have not seen it for a while, obviously it triggered barking but this system was cleverer than that it also triggered a device that bumped around giving the appearance the dog was in the van....
Dogs are always a good deterrent as they just don't know what they are going to confront if they break in!

Amazon product ASIN B0051EAFOG
Search on "Clifford James dog barker"

Why won't a link go direct to the Amazon sales page? Just keeps defaulting to the Amazon home page.
