It actually locks when you lock the car (well it should anyway!!). Open the flap with the car unlocked and then lock the car...you see the little plastic(?) rod pop out

Gets a bit annoying when you lock the car to fill up the car.... Then have to unlock it to open the flap lol.
Flaps not a bad design, although the white locking rod should be metal... It would be better if the flap was smoothed and you pushed the opposite side of the flap to open it like a see-saw (ala BMW).. |

I reckon it's a great feature. I hate getting out of a car and realising I have to go back in to press the damn button...

I still don't get why you would lock your car to fill up at the servo

More to the point, I don't want someone jumping in my car and nicking off with whatever computer/electronic equipment I have in the back. |
