Having two keys in your possession is only proof that you now have 2 keys, it's not proof that you haven't lost one or had one stolen. Some cars are only sold with only 1 key, some come with 4 (2 key's, a spare and a service key).

God forbid my car was stolen, but I would hate to be in the position of having proving to my insurer I had all the keys. It may not be an issue, but then again when insurers are looking at a claim in the tens of thousands they often look for reasons to delay or even refuse settlement. 2024 P550e Autobiography

If it was on the drive and the fob was in range of the vehicle - smash window - press start - drive off. Problem only occurs after you stop Whistle (assuming the immobilizer isn't that clever - which it probably is!)

I know you can't lock the car with the fob if you are inside (>2010), but has anyone tried getting locked in and pressing start? Land Rover Addict

RR keyless fob needs to be near the centre of the car for it to read it... Wont normally work if in your RH pockets as too far away from reader...

Hmm never had that as a problem with mine - in fact it was always in my RH pocket, and as I recall the 'reset because I've immobilised myself'' procedure involves pressing the fob to the lower dash nearest the door on the drivers side - which isn't the middle of the car..... Land Rover Addict

Certainly not required by all insurers (NFU for one).
