Disabling a 182 on the drive

[Benny06]

Hi,

My 182 is awaiting sale at the moment and will be on the drive until it sells.

I plan to disconnect the battery and was wondering if there's anything else I can do to further immobilise it? Short of sticking it on stands and taking the front wheels off (which is probably the best option but makes moving it when I need to, not often, a pain).

Thanks,

Ben

Take off the HT Leads?

 

[Ryan218]

Unplug coil pack wire is the easiest and you wont loose radio code

 

[DrR]

Why?

 

[Daniel]

Disconnect the negative off the battery, disconnect the coil pack plug and tuck it down the back out of view.

 

[DrR]

Disconnect the accelerator pedal wire.

 

[Daniel]

Park it on its roof?

 

[bloke]

insurance?

 

[JCC]

Slash the tyres.

 

[MicKPM]

Remove the 30A blade fuse from the under bonet fuse box then replace the cover. No power to fuel pump or engine sensors so no start.

 

[Inequality Street]

Burn it.

 

[l33th3tr33]

Fill it with diesel.

 

[Thrill]

Why?

Another clio sport classic thread.

Put potatos in the exhausts.

Then cover it in grass and twigs so no one can see it.

 

[Ben]

Take the steering wheel off.

live in it till it sells

Like that say of theives want something bad enough they will take it, I'd say jut unplug coil and keep the car locked on a drive with locked gates , otherwise it's just as easy for a recovery truck to come and take it, I had mine off the road for a couple weeks and I just locked it and undone battery

Padlock it to the drain pipe.

 

[BoatNonce]

Give it a new paintjob.

 

[Tim.]

Put potatos in the exhausts.

I think you mean put bananas in the tailpipe.

 

[Martin_172]

cover it in grass and twigs so no one can see it.

THIS

either this or snap the cambelt and try to start it, unless it does that for you of course!

 

[Eddie.]

Start your own insurance company and insure it in case it gets stolen.

 

[Short Norman]

Give it a new paintjob.

doesn't she look happy with herself

 

[Goodj]

Goddamn hippies probably thinks it's reduced its greenhouse emissions by camouflaging them. Also, stop squinting woman, you can't hide red-eye that easily

In answer to OP: remove the front left fog light

[Ol’ Tarby]

Take a dump on the drivers seat

 

[Welsh.Dan]

Glue razor blades under door handles. Drawing pins on seat. Razor wire wrapped steering wheel. The obvious security measures really.....

 

[Darius]

Put a clamp on and steering lock and remove battery

 

[Jekyll]

Install MagnaVolt.

 

[l33th3tr33]

Put Ktec stickers on it. No one wants a car that's been to Ktec.

 

[BoatNonce]

Put the key in the ignition, and leave the doors wide open. Nobody would fall for a trap that obvious.

LOL!!

Pizza.

 

[BoatNonce]

That wasn't a trap, that was just an act of god.

 

[l33th3tr33]

Should've gone pizza hut iirc.

 

[Ayman]

Eat it.

Or remove battery as suggested above. I'm sure it won't get stolen from where you live. Pretty okay round there? Except from the Quarrendon kids obviously.

I do.
