park it off road, under a light and maybe even a camera. Someone told me that you should always shut your gates, thieves take it as a sign of
sloppyness if they are open.
I have these same nightmares about my van, even in the drive i jump at every sound. The van has no security and no back door lock.

And I know where you live. Only kidding but round here all the vans have hasp and staples with concealed fittings and big f**k off padlocks or some
fancy disc lock things that you can't smack with a hammer as even when they are locked the tealeafs stanley the window rubbers and open them
from inside. The easiest way to proof them is to reverse up to something like a wall so there's no room to get in. I fitted three new rear
window seals in my brother in law's Fiesta when he had it, they very thoughtfully placed his window inside the van after they robbed it

yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

My van has one of those 'no tools left in vehicle overnight' stickers on the back door...
... right underneath the window in the rear door. I do wonder at the intelligence of the people in my head office some times
