So car jackers will become car hackers? Something to look forward to....having your car pinched from your driveway by a fat pimply geek sitting in his bedroom in the Czech Republic. If the car starts coughing and spluttering, does that mean it has a virus? :)
The potential purchaser working in an oil rig does not need any more contacting the owners of thew cars published in gum tree, he will get the car and sell it on line :DQuote:
