Hi
My Panda was in for its service today, and i was given a brand new 500e as my loan car - which was simply brilliant. I have to be honest and i was very sceptical about "milk floats" - Well one day of driving has reassured me that motoring is still going to be fun, different, but fun - and boy, do you have to watch the speed - no engine noise/gear change to go by!
My question is about the keyless entry system though - i assume the car locks itself if you walk away? Or do you need to press the lock button on the fob? I am a bit old school, and have a habit of going back to my car to check i have locked it - even when i have blipped the fob and can hear it lock (fobs with a key). Problem with the 500e, as soon as you get to the car to check, it has unlocked itself!
So what's the range of the fob - i am trying to work out the practicality of having the fob in the house, with the car outside - but will it remain unlocked?
Not got the manual to have a read, so not sure if you can disable the function or change settings etc.
Car was great though.
Thanks
