@Bruhnguswhat does “older” models mean…. If you think a 4 year old car is old i don’t know what to say….
Kia sold cars without immobilizers until very recently. There is no arguing that.. they can be stolen as fast as my 98 civic can have it’s locks rake picked, or busted out with a screwdriver.
@Worzel yep – my peugeot 306 had this pin pad too. Those immobilisers were great – they really reduced the cost of insurance. Loved my 306 – insurance group 5, a 5 door adult sized car I could actually afford to insure when I was 18.
Honestly like this idea. Phones have a passcode, why not cars? Even if it wasn’t unique to the user, just the car, I think it could help with theft. There’s obvious ways round it of course but I still think it could be a benefit for modern cars :p
xantia is such a lovely car. great styling with low drag coeficient, awesome french quirkines and amazing ride! and the V6 models, like the one in this video are a blast to zing along. life sure is too short for boring cars, and the french thankfully deliver us with gems like this. and in the last few years they are back at their game!
Doug the goat 🙏🏻
Doug is the kind of guy to cut the crust off his egg salad sandwich
_Nobody really likes the crust ;-p_
I would certainly consider the crust to be a quirk/feature so actually think he wouldn’t
Then he’d warm it up in the microwave 😋
I like egg salad sandwiches 😊
You’re so funny 😮

Needing a secret passcode to start the car likely kept a lot of drunks and people with memory issues from driving!
Hyundai and kia needs this
You can remove the key in my Hyundai with it still running then go start another hyundai with the same key
Seems like dodge needs this too
when will boomers realize that issue has been solved and only affected older models. answer: indefinitely

gotta love the European immobilizer mandate.
Sure do. Car theft and joy riding were huge problems before that!

We live in an era where Cars are starting to turn into Phones
Although Xantia did later brought this car to the WRC as well
Blud just leaked the passcode to the entire yt shorts algorithm
*1-9-7-3*
Im sure he sidnt really show you the code judging by the cut. He put a random code as an example, then put the real code off cam
You can easily change it
@Quincy Jacksonor maybe, they just changed the code for this video
As someone who got is car stolen recently, I want this.

Get a ghost alarm fitted it’s better
My childhood car!
That is a legitimate quirky feature.
I had one of those once. Great car
Enters secret code: Year of Birth 😂
I’d never pair to that PHD, but I’m not someone who could forget his Parking lot.

I miss you from the Fox morning show. Why did you leave?
Had this in a Peugeot 405 estate growing up too. Super strange feature for sure
