i know! lol to be honest when the alarm messed about i got round it by locking it with the key cos my only thought was 'sounds expensive' and i never even thought bout recasing the aging alarm fob D'oh! still i'm loving the lil mini so i don't miss the BM all that much, miss the straight line speed but i love the way the mini hugs the bends and roundabouts. plus an overtake after a roundabout is normally still possible in the mini if you carry enough speed into the roundabout, probably kill myself in the 328 if i tried some mini style entry speeds lol
