It could be made more secure by a system that checks the finger is still living tissue.

I think we should encourage new technology-it has the potential to virtually eradicate car crime.

The reason Audi didnt include the system on the new A8.

It was on the prototype but never made it into production for this very reason.

Yeah but scrotes are thick. They'd have to try chopping one off to see.

Me - I want one with the SMS based remote control so you can cut off the engine once they get a mile away...

Now now... no need for that!

If they're a mile away you wouldn't get to see the bits splatter!! a few hundred feet should be fine!

I saw one system that filled the car with acrid smoke (not while in motion).

My personal favorite is would be a large boxing glove on a spring to pop out of the airbag. The boxing glove would contain a lead weight.

i preferred the anti-thieft system in one of the robocop films,it waited for the thief to get in and then fried him in the seat....you just simply dragged his smouldering corpse out and left it by the side of the road.

i also liked it because the system ran on a second battery so you never had a problem with a flat battery after it had gone off.

having a bit of a sick sence of humour,i'd put in a couple of cctv cameras and send the footage off to 'kirsty's home video's' and collect the £250 too.

or even a nice big metal spike that shoots up from the underside of the seat and going right up their a-hole....effectively making the thief into a human kebab.

So is somebody now driving around in a stolen Merc with a piece of putrefying flesh attached to their key ring?
