Keyless, can they be stolen?
I pose this one after the news yesterday after a keyless car was stolen without removing the keys from the house but possibly accessing the keys remotely

Anything keyless is vulnerable to this kind of theft - but don't worry...
Whoever heard of an RT getting nicked?

I've got this remarkable security device to protect me from this type of theft. It's a bit of silver metal that sticks out of the fob. Then you stick it in to this little slot and turn. WOrks every time.

Sounds a bit home-made to me. Doubt it will catch on...
