In-car safes

RAC Compact (Issue 1,007), Price: £41.99, Contact: 0870 607 0197, www.rac.co.uk

According to the Home Office’s crime figures, 250,000 portable sat-navs were stolen from cars in 2006, and a vehicle was broken into every 19 seconds. No wonder it pays to make sure your goods aren’t on display – or at least secure. Sales of in-car safes are really taking off as a result, and the Thatcham Q-rated RAC Compact is seriously tough, as
it resisted all our attack attempts.
