As the 120 owners will know, the fuel cap is not a locker.
It simply hides behind a flimsy fuel flap, that might take all of 1 minute for a screwdriver to force open.

With a tank of fuel costing over 100 notes, is it worth buying a locking fuel cap. ?
And also, is there room for a locking fuel cap.?

Or am I being over paranoid about some one helping them selves to my fuel.

I've not checked on mine, but if the fuel filler pipe to the tank is accessible from underneath then the little scrotes will just cut that to get a tube in instead. Thats what happened to me on my MKI Golf many years go.

CCTV? Park the fuel cap side tight into a hedge or wall? Shotgun cartridge trip wire?
 
Yep the fuel filler pipe is easily accessible from underneath so a locking cap will probably only lead to more damage ... :(
