<< This phenomenon still occurs. In 92 I was working for a Saturn retail
facility (they're not "dealers") and one of the consultants (they're not
"salesmen") bought a new Saturn and one day we discovered his key would
start another car. Upon further investigation we discovered his key started
*any* Saturn, and we tried all of the 200 on our lot! Of course there is
the story (true) of the Saturn owner who got into 'their' car at the local
mall, and noticed on the way home items in the back seat that weren't there
before. Yup, not their car. Same year and color and the key worked.
Needless to say we changed all of the lock cylinders on her car for free! >>
It is also Triumph magic. Celebrating our graduation from Army flight school
in '67, my friend staggered out to his new dark blue spitfire and somehow
drove it to his motel room. As you have already guessed, it wasn't his dark
blue Spitfire he drove home, but the other owner guessed what had happened by
the presence of a clone of his car remaining in the Officers Club parking lot
and nothing bad happened to my friend.
