I think only JDM cars have keyless. Thatcham are a UK org (and the yanks don't get the new Jimny at all!)

Don't forget that Thatcham are very involved with the insurance industry. They will doubtless claim to be impartial but given the weight put behind their findings by the insurance and given the widely accepted fact that the insurance industry is corrupt it's not hard to see how pressure can be brought to bear on thatcham to massage a Jimny into a different class of security system and also offer a downgrade on the basis of locking wheel nuts. It gives the insurance industry a reason to load the premiums.

Well mine has an alarm as I found out. I left my Aunt in the car in car park and locked it with the fob whilst I went inside to get the wheelchair. When she saw me coming back she opened the door and the alarm went off.

You cannot beat a bit of 'sensationalism' when it comes to lazy journalism. Why bother with investigative journalism and carefully considered facts when you can put the wind up some readers. For those who were educated at the school for the hard of thinking it might cause sleepless nights - I won't be losing any sleep over this story. On the other hand, the insurance companies always like any excuse to identify potential risks and charge accordingly.

Only problem with the insurance industry conspiracy theory is: why bother with such a low volume vehicle? I prefer to think the security consultant is on the "new jimny waiting list" and is being dicked around by Suzuki
