Speaking of alarms and things that go "Chirp!", I'm looking for something for the Moke.
What I would like is something on a key fob that'll make the car go "chirp!" when I push the button. No need for the alarm part of the system... who the hell would steal a Moke and what would they do with the thing? It's not like they could sell the thing whole. And, even if they tried to part it out, I would probably recognize some of the parts.....
Anyhow, I've grown weary of seeing these yuppies in BMW's walk away from their car and lock it up (chirping) with an over the shoulder push of the keyfob. I just want to be able to turn around say, "Oh sh!t! I forgot to lock the car!" and make the Moke chirp.... with no doors, windows or top...
There again, I do have a warped sense of humor....
So, any help from all you electronic gadgets guys?

I believe that on BINIs with no factory alarm system there will be no churp when locking or unlocking.
Correct, no chirp w/out alarm when locking or unlocking. The lights should flash both when you lock and unlock. Also, you should have no trouble hearing all the locks open or close when you depart or approach the MINI. Mini Estate

Is there a way to activate/deactivate the alarm? I would find it hard to believe that the previous owner didn't get an alarm.. Its pretty much loaded..

I know Mini has an alarm that can be put on..(//www.shopminiusa.com/PRODUCT/517/MINI-ALARM-SYSTEM?CenterId=4677805) ... Is there a way I can tell if my mini has it on it? Is there a certain button combination to enable one? The owner before me had the car loaded - I would be shocked if he didn't get the alarm when he had it built.

Neither of the two MINIs I had (2002 MCS and 2008 Clubman-S) came with an alarm, but both had the remote lock/unlock which only flashed the turn signals/hazards.

Need some answers here... I just bought a used 2011 Mini Cooper Clubman S and it didn't come with an owners manual... How do I get the car to make sounds when I lock/unlock it.. I went in the computer thing behind the steering wheel and the only option was flashing lights? Is there an alarm system on it standard?
