Subject: Re: Security and parking in reverse


Ritch Wardle (Ritchnopsammgia.demon.co.uk) said something like: : I've had 2 Saab 900's now, both of which had manual gearboxes. One of : the 'nice touch' s I've found is the park-in-reverse security feature. : Now I'd imagine that it's a lot more difficult to burgle a Saab than a : car with a simple steering lock, but I've never really had any info on : whether the gearbox lock is an added bonus or not. If it is, why : haven't the other manufacturers adopted it?! Ah, but first they'd have to move the ignition to the center console. For some reason, the other carmakers haven't adopted this feature. Yet. As a side note, Saab 900's were suffering from very high theft rates towards the end of the 1st gen. This is why the 2nd gen 900 has such a comprehensive theft deterrent system. My understanding is that 94+ 900's are now stolen at a far lower rate. Anybody seen this as well? -- > B E N T L E Y < bentleynopsamss.digex.net
