> and harder to pwn

All it takes to pwn a Volkswagen T4 from the mid-90s is to rake the lock, pry open or smash the door, and then about half a minute to hot-wire three pins on the ignition switch (one for the main power and one for the starter motor), although I think that you should be able to motor-rake the ignition switch as well.

Source: owned and heavily worked on one for a few years. Reliable as fuck but thank god Europe doesn't have much of a "joyride" scene.

That’s why everyone has now installed a hidden fuel pump kill switch in their T4s. At least in the US
