The standard immobiliser is ok, but an uprated one will un-doubtable keep your car safer. Best bet would be to get a cat 2 immobiler put on, fitted prices start from around £80. If not, what about a disc lock steering wheel lock? Around £60 from Halfords etc and they rate as a Thatcham 3. Also you can transfer it to yoru next car.

If your skint save for a while like me . you can get the most basic of cliffords Arrow 5 installed for around £199.99 if they charge you more usually they have to price match stuff so argue, however on my corsa they need to put a central locking motor in the passenger door which is around £40-50.
