... feel of it I'd assume it has a metal core and a sort of firm but slightly squashy plastic coating. So if you do accidentally bash it off the windscreen or your knee depending on how you fit it it won't leave your writhing or crack your windscreen! The name/logo is engraved down the bar, like a sort of fashion statement. Be warned that although the bar has the same shape cut out the end as the 'Pulsar' models, this does not have a flashing light built into it and I don't think a model is available with one, though my...more

If you've seen my earlier review, you'll have seen I used to use a Metro Stoplock Original as the main security for my car (also reviewed!) until the damn thing stopped working and fell to bits. This time when buying I did some research, it showed that this version had outlasted the attack tests, which last 5 minutes. Even some of the most expensive car steering locks don't even last that long, and this one only cost me £45 and I don't think the price has changed, though you will probably have to buy it online because I'm not sure if shops sell this anymore or not. Anyway, in complete contrast to the Metro Stoplock Original, I would definitely recommend this and if you .. Read the complete review

Ive had the lock for about 5 years on my 3rd car with it. I leave my car on the street and never had a problem with thieves bought it because I had a standard stoplock and my car was stolen. I give this lock 5 stars * * * * *.

I ve had this lock for five years - first in my Escort now in my 3 Series. I felt I needed the extra security as I live in a rough area and park on the street. No problems so far - good heavy meaty lock with a long bar (much better choice than the stoplock original and only £15 more) which I have used everyday. Its still bright yellow after all this time, and the lock has worked faultlessly - just requires a little squirt of WD40 each year to keep it running smoothly. My car has not been broken into yet as I always use this lock which be seen across the street in the windscreen. I also be sensible and dont keep anything in the ... Read the complete review

I bought a Metro Stoplock eight years ago. After a year or two, I turned the key in the lock to open it and the key turned without openning the lock. I then had to prise the lock off my steering wheel to be able to drive anywhere. I got a big screwdriver, and wiggled it around in the hinge, and it took about a minute. If I had a bit more practice, then I'm sure you could get it done in little more time than it takes to remove the thing using the keys. A security device should be more of an inconvenience to a thief than to me! When I bought a new car, I got a Barrier Deadlock fitted. They drill a hole through the transmission tunnel and fit a ...
