Having had my 08 Cooper S with Bluetooth entry. Ie walk up to car press black button on car door, and pressing the start button.

I have now got teh work commodore ute and getting keys out of pocket pressing remote button, and then inserting key in barrel and turning it , Really sucks. I hate it and can;t wait to get my Cooper S.

I had to drive my mate's new 200 series cruiser the other day and it has the same no key entry/start button. Its auto too.

It tok me about 10 mins to work out it would't start beacause I didn't have my foot on the brake!! :roll:

I'll take the keys any day. It is cool though.

soooo, does this mean for some reason the bluetooth sender buggers up somehow, you are left with no other option for entry?

No, usually there are still keys and locks as well.

It's a painful thing when you have to use a key to operate a vehicle, isn't it.

Life sucks :roll:
