    At the other end of the spectrum, it's possible to get a Skoda keyfob that's just a big lump of coal.

    I've got more money than taste. Shame I've only got £15.

    @Rust-MyEnemyEnjoysPleasure!!!!: I'll see if they can do a bulk order. An Audi one for you, a VW one for me.


    Or... should we both just ask for Bugatti ones, and be pretentious?

    Better there than glue'em'n'lose'em on the outside of the car. Smash'n'grab'em in Tribeca, crash'em at Monaco...all potential loss methods. Eh, Jaguar?


    British car manufacturers learned their lesson: Always put the diamonds on the inside of the car.


    Guess the Bentley Boys can still go racing, too.

    1.09 total carats of TINY diamonds for $8,000 is a complete ripoff. The stones are probably worth 1/3 to 1/2 that much. The price of diamonds at a certain clarity go up exponentially with size.


    Plus, if it's anything like my switchblade key, it'll start falling apart within 2 years.

    @Ash78: It's clearly not aimed at Jalops,it's more for people with more money than taste. It gives them something sparkly to put next to their Breitling for Bentley watch before going to bed at night. They like the shiny shiny.

    @Ash78: Our switchblade dates at least to '03 and works fine.


    Both of our door latches have failed, but that's a different problem entirely.

    @FuzzyPlushroom: I'll trade you a Saab key stuck in the damn center ignition these last eight months for a fally-aparty VW switchblade key any day.


    Daily procedure:

    -Shut off engine

    -Cover key with hat

    -Set alarm

    @JackMaz: SAAB or Saab?


    If a SAAB, did you try lifting the collar and put it into reverse?


    If a Saab, blame GM.
