I purchased the stoplock pulsar a few days ago and fitted it to my car. Within 8 hours my car was stolen and i found the lock in pieces on a local school. Once the car had been found, we spotted a small screwdriver that did not belong to us. We believe that the thieves used this to destroy and remove the lock. I am absolutly disgusted in how the company has praised this item when it took only minutes for a bunch of kids to prise it off with a screw driver!! I strongly advise everyone to stay clear of this item as it is a waste of time and ... Read the complete review

To be honest I thought that these things were supposed to stop thieves running off with your car. This morning I found myself unable to drive my car - all thanks to Stoplock. I simply could not get the thing off the steering wheel. The lock somehow had become jammed and the key would not turn. I went in search of the spare key, but this turned out to be a futile exercise. As I was running late for work there was no alternative but to break the thing. I expected it to be a tough job, considering the web site says it is attack resistant!

I went to Halfords to look at the car security devices that they had on sale and decided I wanted one that would go over the steering wheel as the other models required glueing the gearstick which on a brand new car was not something that I wanted to do so... I bought myself the stoplock for £34.99 and invested in the model that was slightly larger to accommodate cars ... Read the complete review

Despite the poor reviews I've just read here, this lock of mine has actually stopped 2 of my cars being stolen. I have read of people not being happy because the stoplock didn't prevent their car being stolen, well I suggest that if your's are getting nicked, then you're doing something wrong. Try pointing the bar up to the corner of the windscreen rather than the centre of the windscreen of into the car. This is a product which I'd strongly reccomend, & the only reason I stopped using mine was that I had a leather sports steering wheel in my car & it wouldn't fasten round it, otherwise I'd still be using it today! ...
