Is it a good idea to keep a club (anti theft device) in your car?

The club does nothing to encourage or discourage theft.  If someone wants to steal a car with the club, they don't f*ck around with the club...they just break the steering wheel.  The car will be sold as parts anyway, and the steering wheel is disposable.

Remember the golden rule..... When in doubt use a club.  Thieves tend to steal the vehicle that is the quickest and easiest to break into  Make yours a little harder

I don't know about every car on the market . . . but every one I've had since 1995 comes with a factory alarm/immobilizer that's better than anything you can add-on. . . . . ignition keys with chips inside are better than the club . . . the club was OK 40 years ago but thieves quickly learned how to bend or cut steering wheels,  freeze/break the lock, remove the brake pedal, etc.

I would rather see some type of James Bond device's in cars

The club can be easily stolen by cutting the steering wheel.

The club will add at least 30 seconds to the time it takes to steal your car

Year make and model.  If your car has an  immobilizer, you do not need one.  And get a brake pedal lock if your car does not have an immobilizer.  They work better.

Do they still make it. I haven’t seen one of them in ages. 

It’s great if you own a civic, Camry, or Corolla, the most stolen cars, because the club prevents the thief from driving it. 

Does it prevent theft in your car. No. If a thief sees something that he likes, he’ll steal it. What prevents theft is your parking location. If you park under a light where it’s easier for others to see, it makes it tougher for thieves. If you park in a dark area, it’s easier for a thief to break in.
