Motorcycle chain-hardened Boron shackle plus a wheel clamp.

Ground Anchor (motorbike style) into a concrete base and hammer ball bearings into the allen key type screws & cover with superglue. Then the most expensive Oxford style chain (£120 - but what's that compared to a chipper).

You say a shed, do you mean a wooden shed?if so I would get the SAS involved as wooden sheds are easier to get into than landrovers!

Great shout on the bearings!!

What about tow hitch ball type locks?

Yeah - one permanent trip hazard & toe stubber but worth it.

Spread you money thinly and put "layers" of security in rather than relying on one thing,alarm shed,ground anchor then hitch lock then wheel clamp,any thing to make it a pain to get really.

A piece of frayed bailing twine and put one of these on the end of it.

Pragmasis chain, ground anchor and padlock bundle best value.
