Another quick question if you don't mind:

The central locking on my car has never really worked.

From the outside: You can only unlock the car using the boot. You can lock the car using the boot or the driver's door.

From the inside: All doors/boot can be locked/unlocked by using the pins on either driver's or passenger's doors.

I've treated it as a quirky security feature to date, but with a baby coming in the next few months I'll have to give my estate car to my wife and am left with either her Yaris or my E36 track car. Door locks were never an issue for a track car, but will become tedious if I'm taking it to work. Any pointers as to what to look for, or should I just book it in, hand over a wad of cash and be done with it?

Many thanks.
