yards before they lose signal and the car detects there is none and stops.


Once the car starts, it stays running, even if loses contact with the
key ... don't you think it might be a bit dangerous if it shut the
engine off in lane3 of the M1 when the fob's battery voltage dropped
below some threshold?


I suppose if the fob was purely passive inductive that bit wouldn't be a
problem then?..
