    If you’re like most people, you probably don’t think too much about protecting your car’s cargo. You might just toss whatever you need to bring with you into the backseat or trunk and hit the road. But doing this can be a big mistake, especially if you’re traveling in an area that’s known for crime or if you’re driving a long distance. There are plenty of ways to protect your car’s cargo, and some are even easy and inexpensive to do. Here are six of our best tips.

    1. Using A Cover

    One of the simplest and most effective ways to protect your car’s cargo is to use a cover. A cover will shield your belongings from view, making it much less likely that someone will try to break into your car to steal them. You can find covers specifically designed for Trunks and backseats at most auto parts stores. For some cars, hard folding tonneau covers are also available. These provide even more security by making it difficult for would-be thieves to access your trunk or backseat. 

    If you’re not sure what kind of cover is right for your car, ask a salesperson at the store. Additionally, a cover can be useful when you’re carrying something large or awkwardly shaped in your trunk, as it will keep it from moving around and possibly damaging your car.

    2. Using A Lock

    Another way to protect your car’s cargo is to use a lock. This can be especially helpful if you’re carrying valuables with you or if you’re leaving your car unattended for some time. There are a few different types of locks that can be used for this purpose. One is a basic cable lock, which can be threaded through the handles of your trunk or backseat to keep them from being opened. These are relatively inexpensive and easy to use, but they can be cut relatively easily with bolt cutters. 

    Another option is a locking bar, which fits across the inside of your car’s trunk or door and prevents it from being opened. These are more expensive than cable locks, but they’re also much more difficult to defeat.

    3. Using A Security System

    If you want to protect your car’s cargo, you can install a security system. These systems usually include sensors that will sound an alarm if someone tries to break into your car. Some even have GPS tracking devices that can help you locate your car if it’s stolen. Of course, security systems can be quite expensive, so they might not be an option for everyone. 

    But if you can afford them, they’re worth considering. Or, if you’re serious about protecting your car’s cargo, you can always hire a professional security company to do it for you.

    4. Parking In A Well-lit Area

    One of the best ways to deter would-be thieves from breaking into your car is to park in a well-lit area. If possible, try to find a spot that’s close to a light source, such as a street lamp or parking garage light. This will make it much more difficult for someone to break into your car without being seen. Additionally, it’s a good idea to park in a busy area where there are lots of people around. This will make it less likely that someone will try to break into your car, as they’ll be more likely to get caught.

    5. Hiding Your Valuables

    If you’re carrying valuables with you, it’s important to hide them from view. This will make it much less likely that someone will try to break into your car to steal them. There are a few different ways to do this. One is to use a cover or tarp to conceal your belongings. Another is to put them in the trunk of your car, if possible. Or, if you’re leaving your car unattended for some time, you can hide your valuables in a safe place, such as a locked glove compartment or under the seat.

    6. Being Smart About Where You Park

    Finally, it’s important to be smart about where you park your car. If possible, try to find a spot that’s well-lit and close to a busy area. Additionally, it’s a good idea to avoid parking in isolated areas, as this can make your car an easy target for thieves. If you’re going to be gone for a long period, it’s also a good idea to park in a garage or other secure location. By following these tips, you can help ensure that your car’s cargo is safe from theft.

    As you can see, there are several different ways to protect your car’s cargo from theft. By taking some simple precautions, you can help ensure that your belongings are safe and sound. So the next time you’re packing up your car for a road trip, be sure to keep these tips in mind.

    • The first customer Maserati MC20 has landed in SA finished in Bianco Audace. We are expecting 9 units to arrive this year. 

The base comes in at R6,714,000 and that gets you a twin-turbo 3-litre V6 delivering 620 hp (463 kW) and 730 Nm of torque.

It is a very pretty thing. What do you all think?

    • The latest BMW X4 M Competition is undeniably quick. It packs a rip-snorting engine delivering bonkers acceleration and some seriously impressive handling agile enough to trick you into thinking it's a sports car.

This LCI model boasts a sweet technical update, with more performance and better tech on offer, plus bespoke M features for this halo model.

The ride however is a tad hard-edged and the X3 M Competition alternative does offer more practicality. If you prefer coupe-like styling this is the one for you even if Sao Paulo Yellow may not be your first choice.
