Dad used to have a set of keys like that. He put them on a diet when the car shut off, lights off, steering lock on, on a single lane unlit road at night.

I hear what your saying but I've never had a problem with such a large bunch of keys (I use all of them regularly) not to mention I know I've got them in my pocket by the sheer weight!

a friend of mine has that too, and i swear the ignition barrel on his golf is looser than it should be. the keys are quite heavy, along with whatever other crap he has on his keyring like a bottle opener..
surely that can't be good, dangling from the barrel all day?

My keys have tripled in quantity, due to needing the grey fob to get out of the car park here. The jangling annoys me, how can any of you with large numbers of keys cope?

Hugely annoying Opel keys that only fit in one way. Really confuses our security guards when they do routine boot searches.

My key works both ways, but since the fob is not symmetrical, I must use it the correct way up.

How people can put up with carrying so many keys baffles me.

How people can put up with carrying so many keys baffles me.

To have all regularly used keys in 1 place and not having to have multiple keys

? Those are the things I always want to carry with me.

When I go out I don't want to think, ''hmmm which of the 5 vehicle keys (including my bike) do I need?'', the laser has proved handy at uni for presentations, and a flashlight ( even the most rubbish basic one) is always handy to have. I like being able to control my HU from outside when I'm at maccy d carpark with mates or whatever and the camera is for quickly recording something without someone knowing I'm recording ( unlike with my phone camera)...

Mine doesn't have a key anymore. Just a button.

hsiaolc · 4 May 2010 at 00:58

No key to get in the car either.

Stig has seen better days on my keyring.

ajstan · 4 May 2010 at 08:47

I had a stig as well...his head fell off though

I can't stand things dangling from the key in the ignition and rattling round.

Simplistic is win!
