Relay Crime - anyone worried?

Anyone got any concerns???
Tend to keep my keys by the front door so if anyone did break in at least they would be in and out and not searching round the house but don’t want to make it any easier for them if now they just need to walk up to the front door.

Get one of these... http://amzn.to/2kkIXMQ
I have one which my keys live in it when not in use. I can be stood directly next to the car or even sat in it, the car cant be opened or started with the keys in the pouch. Solves any ‘relay’ attack crime.

Re: Relay Crime - anyone worried?
Would you not rather they stole the car via relay than enter your house looking for the keys?

Re: Relay Crime - anyone worried?
I dont, try Facebook stolen cars uk and PL Autotek if I remember correctly. He’s a ghost fitter thats currently replacing the systems he fitted with clifford as hes that worried about how insecure it is. Its a very basic starter cut immobiliser, only difference is it uses a canbus interface to disarm. On a manual car you can bump start them and it takes an extra minute on a auto but the guy hasn't said how they do it to protect his current customers until the ghost is removed

Re: Relay Crime - anyone worried?
Yes i had comfort access on my M4 never had it stolen in my year of ownership.
Don't have it on the RS6 but do think its a great feature if buying new would spec it over things like heads up display and adaptive lights, as found them a waist of time.
