The question is 'What Car'
kit or tin top.
I could break into my cortina Mk 1 with a lolly stick!

I used a girl-friends hair grip one day when I lost the keys to my mk1 cortina.
Gob smacked a copper one day when I took about 15 seconds to get into a Montego with just a length of 10mm parcel/pallet strapping. The plod had
spent about 2 hours trying different keys and devices.

My dad once stole a Granada by accident, his key worked and it was the same colour. He tought it sounded wrong so he stopped, still in the same car
park and the owner came running at him. He also claims that in the early days of remote locking that the bloke down the street had it on his rover but
that it also opened ours, which didn't have a remote.
Why was he breaking in, if I got caught I'd claim it was the first time, like when you get caught smoking or drinking.

He was breaking in because he'd locked the keys in, and it is a (fairly) modern tintop. Tbh not what I was expecting from a car of that age...

Mk1 nova was special, you could get in with a 12" rule then pull the hazard switch out and plug it in upside down and all the ignition lights
would come on for you, seriously!

Was that doubled, slid between the door seal and the pillar and then one side slid to curl it round to pull the locking knob? Years ago, someone in a
Cortina blocked me in when I was on a tight deadline - I was parked nose on to a fence and between two other cars, he parked across the back of all
three cars. At some stage he will have returned and found his car all locked up, twenty-feet away at a silly angle.

Did the same with the wifes Fiesta a while back, in the hospital car park. I walked up to what I thought was the right car, unlocked the door, got in,
and had to move the seat,(that's odd, I thought), put the key in and started it, when I got the feeling something was not quite right. Checked
the glovebox, then got out and looked at the no. plate.
Mine was a few cars up the line!
Turns out there was only 10 different keys for the model in question! Apparently, a Ford habit for a great number of years. Luckily, I wasn't
seen.
Cheers,
Nev.
