i've only owned a nova and a corsa, and both never got touched by anyone

most cars could be stolen if someone wanted to, depends where you park it really as to how secure it is

Well currently going from a nice area of derby to the city centre of Middlesbrough, i knew it would be not as safe. Thing is, nothing was on show and nothing was in there.

nothing is secure mate.

All cars have alarms immobilisers etc etc. If your car is going to get broken into you cant do much other than lock your car, dont leve it in silly areas, dont leave anything on display. if someone wants to steal a car that badly, theyll whack it on a trailer and whip it away without touching it.

Its not the stealing of the car im botherd about, I want a car thats hard to break into lol.
Also, my car has an immobiliser, was left outside my house, nothing was in the car yet alone on display and still it gets broken into.

In a nutshell - not any more than your corsa!! Any car door will bend should someone want in. The best deterant will be to get it off the road parked somewhere secure or if thats not possible a decent cat 1 alarm/immobiliser & tidy car...ie - dont leave anything on view someone would want to nick!!

Yeah well it cant be put off the road unfortunately. As for the alarm, thats a possibility on a next car.

I would always get an alarm if i got a new car. Thing is, an alarm is only good to warn you and not theives. When people hear alarms where i live they dont do anything.
