Hi All, I'm considering getting a Discovery 5 however I'm worried about break in's and theft of keys to get it. I've seen it's in the top 10 for most stolen vehicles and with kids and pets in the home I have to be honest it does concern me.
We have the best locks for the doors recently fitted and a CCTV and Ring set up but you hear about thieves barging into homes to get keys etc.
Solution:

Sold Volvo XC90 R-Design (known as Basil)
Sold - D4 HSE (Known as Gerty)

EGRs blanked
T-Max split charge
Hanibal Expeedition rack
Prospeed ladder
Duratrac tyres

think the OP is more concerned about his house being broken into for the car keys.
I couldn't give a crap about a car, that is what insurance is for.
but break into my house and my first instinct will be to protect the family....

Keyless entry is a nice touch, shame to have to disable it.

Agree. I have two daughters and a very petite and attractive wife. I will defend them to the death but make sure any injuries to the assailant / burglar scum are from the front. I have no problem getting up front and personal....New Defender L663 110 SE (known as Noddy!)
