This is probably a long shot but is anyone interested in buying the ultimate security device for your car 
Its a device which will fill an average size car full of completely harmless smoke in a matter of seconds.
"a thief can't steal what they cant see!"
Im more than definately buying one of these very soon. There priced at £228 + VAT. With the cost of some car alarms on the market its quite cheap!! Theres discounts with group buys so I thought I would ask if anyone is interested?
Cheers

Was thinking I would just get sarky comments from here! 
no its a serious security product.
Its not actual real smoke, just a very thick fog which is completely harmless to person or materials.

Have seen em before.
Are they not available on some clifford alarms???
Read from somebody on here, that theres had accidentlly triggered whilst they were on the motorway, however he managed to dodge over to the hard shoulder to safety just in time.
Sound reasonably ok, but would piss me off if it went off unintentionally or so.

Never heard of Clifford selling anything similar. This product can basically be used on near enough any alarm though.
This unit has a safety feature built in which will not allow it to activate while the car is in motion. So thats nice to know

The smoke is harmless, similar to that used in night clubs.
I personally think its an excellent idea and I'd be well interested in fitting it to the Corsa when its finished. Whats the price of a refill?

The refills are £21 for a canister. These canisters can fill an average sized car about 40 times!

I'll spend the money on a decent alarm system to deter people from going near the car. The thing I'm more bothered about is scum damaging the bodywork while attempting to get in.

Yep an alarm should be the first thing. Although if u think about it an alarm isn't actually going to physically stop the scum.
whereas this is
