You have two options with the key.
Keep it in the car. So the neds smash the window and nick your wheels
Keep it at home and risk being stuck if you get a puncture. Neds don't know this and still smash your window
Somehow i just don't see the point
Not that i own anything where anyone would want to nick the wheels off anyway

(that's why I think Mike will do fine, that and his lack of imagination).
