buy a big bike chain and put it through the wheel spokes and round the front suspension. Will put off just about everyone and they only cost £60-£80.
I did this for 4 years with the Falcon as the doors didn't even lock and still have it

Hi
I used a bike D-lock through the front wheel / wishbones as Mr Whippy. It's nice and visual and pretty good at stopping the car being pushed
away.
As for a Tonneau, Keith has just had one made up by a company round the corner from me, Northumbria Leather, but unless you are willing to travel,
that's of little use to you!
I'm a cheapskate, so 1 umbrella + 1 tarp =
 
Locost Cover
David had found a nice little cover that packed up small in this thread...

Yeah but yours is a Falcon man, you'd need to be high on crack to even contemplate stealing it.

I can send the boys round to look after it for a small fee.
