The best in the ones I have and also compared is disklock, unfortunately it's also the most expensive.
This like is just so you can see one, it may not be the size for the new Jimny.

Pro
The most secure
Large visible deterrent
Various sizes to fit wheel
Cons
If a heavy lump of metal in the car
Can be a fiddle to fit
It's expensive
Nothing will stop them if they want it. Sensible parking and common sense is your best defence, this is second.

That looks a right tank! Very sturdy looking thing.
Your so right, its about a few things I suppose:
- Deterrence, hence the look of the lock is a big factor
- Time it takes to break the lock if an attack came about.
- Where its parked. / Day or night /CCTV around
Thanks for the recommendation, i'm going to Halfords this morning. I'll take some pictures of whats on offer.

Pizz take aside, the Disc-Lock thingamygimmy is on my list.
I am guessing that the "small" size is suitable for the Gen4?
Edit to say, Eurocarparts have a sale on the Disc-Lock, which ends tonight.

One hell of a link, but, £112.76, if you use the discount code.
