I have just been watching Watch Dog on TV concerning Smart Keys and how blank keys can be duplicated within seconds to start a car and drive it off. The vehicles in question which they shown were BMW, Audi and Land Rover but nothing was mentioned about Jaguars. As Jaguar owners are our cars our cars in that category or has Jaguar brought out an upgrade which I know nothing about? Can anyone inform me as a new XF jaguar 2008 owner.

I sawit too, Neville.  I also know that the Police in Birmingham found  over 2000 blank BMW keys fobs in a house in the city.

 

I am rather glad that my s type has a normal key and fob entry.

Thankfully down our way they just steal horses and sheep .

 

But Peter, didn't you have your car stolen off your drive?

 

ATB,
