Yeah, it has been clarified by the PI that there is a master key with retractable-key. The one shown to me was a spare key.

"Keyless entry" - most probably the catalogue refers to the "Remote Entry" most of us have now.

The RFID theft article is quite recent only i think.

They will not waste the time. There are other cars easier to steal, even if its less profitable. Deal in quantity rather than face hassles. Just like steering wheel locks can be negated by cutting the steering wheel but its still a deterrent. A thief rather break into a car without it.

mkl22: Why not get a good aftermarket alarm? I love those 2 way ones; use to have it but its a hassle to install one now with the OEM remote.

Yup, recent article.

It takes less than a minute to defeat the steering wheel lock. If it's an expensive car, parked alone in a dark secluded spot, I'm sure the theft will still strike. Therefore, I believe there are many contributing factors. Not just whether you use a steering wheel lock or not.

The RFID issue is just that owners think they are more secure just because they have the most recent piece of technology which what we trying to inform the rest is that this is just not true. There are blue collar car thieves who use jimmy's, crowbars, hacksaws and even tow trucks and there are white collar car thieves who use notebooks, RF/RFID scanners and transmitters. Don't understimate car thieves and think that all of them are poor uneducated junkies armed with only cavemen tools, even if they are the majority.

I like this part of the description... very important.

The last thing you want to happen...
1) hold the key in your hands
2) open the trunk
3) take things
4) close trunk
5) find out that you left your keys in the trunk!!!!


YES, the car remains locked even after you release the trunk...

But for entertainment value, so that coupeM will explain - How to close the boot using the keyless remote ah? I press the same button for 20 seconds the boot also dun close. I thot if auto-open then can auto-close.
