Greg,
Nice work winning the race for our team :D
I am very happy to have called it the wrong way. Now I have to get to work and beat my friend's e36 :twisted:

No-no Greg! These are all precautionary devices related to our South African hijacking staple...

I locked myself out of my Brother's Isuzu bakkie twice now - right infornt of Glenwood Motors - none of us could get it going... 400 bucks SA later and the damn thing was out of hijack mode!

It's push the botton twice-rotate key-push immo. button once...no-no wait... Crap... Locked again...

All that technology just to stop car jacking? Tinted windows and a 9mm would be a lot easier.

Don't mess with Greg (Paradise Texas).
I hear that the ladies carry nines in their purses down there. They do it not to protect themselves, but out of pure patriotism :wink: .

U S A...U S A...

That would be true, if it was easy to own a legal firearm.

Somebody must have guns in South Africa. What are the bad guys using to hijack the cars? Harsh language?

Here in Swden they use regular cars, any stolen one will do and force them to stop using military automatic rifles. Take the money and blow up the car or blow the transport car open in some cases to get to the money. Fire bomb a car and use little pyramid shaped pinty things for making the pusuit difficult.
Welcome to Sweden. :wink:

Here they strap C4 to Kangeroo's, in the pouches.

They come hopping into banks and bam, blokes dunno what hit em.

Welcome to Australia.

Oh, and they use Commodores as getaway cars.
