Last week, i came out of the girlfriends, to find the drivers door had been unlocked, i know i locked it..
and today, i went shopping with parents in there car, and found the passenger door unlocked
now im wondering if someone else has a key.. when i bought the car, there was only one key, and i had another cut..
but i do rember to lads in a fiesta pointing at my car some time ago..
Looking for a cheap but decent alarm..

dont know how cheap this would be but ever thought of changing the locks/keys incase someone else does have a key? but surely if they had a key they would of taken the car.
you arent goin to get an alarm fitted for anywhere near £50 imo

If you have a spare key unless they are cut by Vauxhall they wont start the car just open the doors, thats my personal expirence.

As someone said, spare keys can't start the car, but can open the doors, I have a key like that. Even if you had an alarm wouldn't it not go off if the door was opened with a key? My advice would be to get the locks changed, or just don't leave anything in your car, ever!
