My blitz was excellent at doing this. If I stopped whilst on an up ramp, dipped the clutch and then pulled off the effect was even better. American cars seem even more prone to going off. Our local multi-storey is full of Ford Mustangs (USAF base nearby) and Ive set 5 off in one go on a good night.

Our courtesy Corsa set off an Alarm on an EVO VI the other day

And its totally standard. Rather embarassing as I parked next to it and everyone was looking as if I'd just bumped it . I hate clifford alarms - irritaing rubbish!

Cool

On test drive in my lancia after I had my group A system fitted I set off car alarms and thought spot on I got back to the garage and they were saying it needed a silencer but I thought no it's still like it 3 years on and not one silencer
