Had a man about last night around 1am, standing in my drive carrying a huge black empty bag, i was asleep but my neighbour shouted summit at him, and he strolled off :s
Now im massivly paranoid, the car has an alarm, but drive is beween 2 houses so is unlit! what else can i do to protect car and its belongings, i know about bending door back, is there another usual methos that i could take away/ make safer!?

do you mean to stop them stealing the car or whats in it?
to stop them taking the car jus take one of the ht leads off or unplug the crank sensor anything to stop it starting,as for whats inside just take everything nickable out.
also if your alarm starts going off randomly always reset it,never turn it off.

If they had a big bag, they are likely to be nicking stuff out of it. so as said, remove everything valuable.
If you think they might come back (and you have some free time) strip everything valuable out the car, leave the door unlocked and a note on the seat, telling them to F*** off, nowt valuable left!

Double sided tape and broken glass under the door handles.
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

if you don't take everything worth nicking out your car at night, you're a fool.
if you're a fool, take everything out and leave the glovebox open so they can see nothing is in there.

It could have just been some drunk guy walking home or something, but know what you mean Im paranoid about mine too. A snap off steering wheel would ensure they cant take the car, and as said leaving the glovebox open is a good idea.
Fuckers would probably wreck it if they couldnt steal it though
