Additional Security for motorhome
After many years of looking we took the plunge 8 weeks ago and bought a Majestic 195 (2014).
We’ve already had many adventures including a tour around the very narrow streets of Mevagissey - 1st lesson - don’t rely on Sat Nav!
The van has an alarm system but we would like to add additional security as it proudly sits on our open drive when not in use .
Any suggestions - we were thinking of a wheel clamp but would appreciate any advice.
Many thanks
Derek & Debra

Mevagissey! Oh, please tell me you didn’t really 😱
No anti theft device will stop the determined thief but a wheel clamp at home and a steering lock when home or away are about as good as any. Some people cement fold down poles into their drives but, as I said, nothing is foolproof. Some insurance companies insist on particular items, some not.
Next time park in The Willows. You can stay overnight too.👍🏻

Mevagissey on my tick list as done and not to be repeated . Thankfully 3 locals helped us when confronted by a stream of traffic coming straight at us just as we were about to go up the steepest hill (or so it seemed) in Cornwall !
Thanks for advice .0 -

Tell me this wasn’t you... pictured recently in Mevagissey, ignored plenty of very big signs and just about to enter the zone of maximum disruption to locals & visitors alike!

A tracker will give a chance of recovery. A Stoplok Pro steering wheel lock is a very visual deterrent.

When people buy m/homes does common sense go out the window ? I am going where i want ,that sign doesnt apply to me Sennen cove springs to mind . Trouble is to many of you ,{ seen the sales figures wow } Anyway enjoy ,at least you aint getting soaked like me setting up awning , getting water ect .

I think I’ve still got my common sense, DC.
It's not just MH-ers but HGV drivers, bus drivers, coach drivers, white van man delivery drivers.... Oh, and caravan tuggers, mustn't forget them 🤨

It's those that think that because their basic Sat Nav says they can go there that it will be fine!!

We can smugly judge these hapless folks, but most of us have been there, done that. A moments lapse in concentration or distraction and not observing a sign is all it takes. I’ve certainly had a few such occasions over the years, here and ‘over there’. However, I clearly don’t have any common sense!
