   It partly depends on the age of your car, but with the growing number   
   of recalls for various products these days, attention to detail and   
   quality of products is becoming more questionable in the rush to simply   
   shovel out a new version.

   Nope, I just don't want my car stolen or stolen from, which is quite   
   likely since it is a model that was top of the police's most stolen   
   list for about six years in a row, until last year (in fact it appeared   
   on the list twice, under the New Zealand name and the Japanese import   
   name).
