Austria-based Identec Solutions said yesterday Audi will use Identec's RFID tags for Audi TT sport car production. According to the firm, its RFID tags allow for real-time tracking of any one of the 350 Audi TT chassis on the shop floor during the production phase on a given day at Audi's plant in Ingolstadt, Germany. The tags are used for the quality-assurance phase, the company says.

If I was ever unfortunate enough to receive one of these excuses for automotive design i'd pay to have the tracker removed, then i'd take out a private add in the paper informing people I had left the key in the ignition of my Audi TiT complete with address and times I was out.

Oh i'd also leave £20 on the dash to make sure they got it far enough away.....scratch that, £5 just in case they decide to bring it back.
