Grenadier keys and security

[QUOTE username=Tazzieman userid=8441415 postid=1332763321]Fortunately I don't have to worry about crime like that.But suggest you put a fake tarantula on the dash. So many people are terrified of spiders. Even thieves have their neuroses.[/QUOTE]

I had a pet tarantula once, somebody broke into the car and stole it ?

Huntsman spiders live in our cars. They sit in the door jambs and frighten the hell out of city folk.

Yes the Grenadier has a regular key that you need to put in the steering column/ dash and turn to start (hate the push button starts).

Nice one Sledge, I definitely havenât seen that before. Very reminiscent of a Land Rover key. By the looks of that there is a button to let the key blade out, so I would say itâs old school. No keyless entry or ignition. Great ?

Another photo with a bit more to scale it to:

Grenadier has a standard metal key and a Thatcham Cat 1 security system.

It's standard kit in the UK, but in Europe (I checked Portugal) and Australia the base models only have it as a costed option.
