How many actual break ins and cars stolen are just because they keys were in view? How many people have actually been threatened to hand there keys over?
My estate was done over back in April, as in all the houses! It has a decent amount of people who have lease Mercs, BMW’s and Audi/VW’s. Three Golf R’s, at least 6 Mercs with decent power outputs, over 10 BMW’s including 2 M cars and a Mustang all gone in one night! They were back 6 weeks later for the replacements too. One family who had their 2 Merc Estates stolen both times now have a beater Merc estate and a Honda SUV, both cost less than a grand each. None of the other cars on the estate were touched. Other areas of Cardiff were done the same night the second time.
No way would I have one of those cars, seems to be not if but when will it be stolen.
Edited to add most were taken using laptops to read the keys and start the cars, only one or two houses were broken in to. One of the reasons I don’t like ‘keyless’ start and unlock.
