You know you can open solex locks with a broken pen tube right? Me and my mates utilised this a while ago when we realised they're also used on vending machines. We never paid for drinks after that, hehe. They may deter your common thief but anyone who knows a bit will know that a bic pen tube (only a certain type, similar to a uniball kilometrico) can fit in and grip the center tight enough to open the lock. Similar locks to the ones on kryptonite bike locks too. I wouldn't put them on my car, but then again I couldn't afford them.
