i can't condone, stealing cars, but i would imagine if you had a Porsche at that time, you were a corporate crook, so it evens out (before anyone gets upset, not all corporations are crooks)

What surprises me is that it would work, time after time, must have been a design flaw.

But what really annoyed me, is even though my commodore key could open other commodores, at parties, i found out that people with their commodore keys could sometimes open mine as well.

Thats just poor keying effort from Holden, id hate to know how many people took advantage of this.

I think it was a pommy Ford Fiesta, or maybe some small Vauxhall that once you were in you could start the car by pulling out the hazard switch block and turning it upside down and re inserting...

The Top Gear guys did it once.

I used to have a BMW with a 4 digit code that needed to be input before it would start, pretty leading edge back then......it turned out by smashing the taillight and removing a globe the crooks could read the code!..
