    As far as I know normal Fiestas don't get stolen all that much but I use a Disklok for my ST and a dummy OBD port, after that you start talking silly money for aftermarket alarm systems etc.

    It would be good to understand how difficult each type of start entry/start was to steal, with minimum recommendations for each:

    1. Manual locking, key start

    2. Remote locking, key start

    3. Remote locking, keyless start

    4. Keyless locking, keyless start

    i think good visual security like a big lock across the steering wheel is good. hopefully they see that and move to another car before they damage yours. dummy OBD port doesn't stop them causing damage first. I have Fiesta Mk7.5 Style, I work on the basis it is too boring for anyone to want to steal.
