Yep. My 200D 2.4, being a vacuum shutoff engine inside a cable shutdown car, has a vacuum toggle switch hidden under the dash to shut down the engine. This makes the car virtually impossible for a common thief to steal. It too will run until the vacuum builds after a couple of revolutions, then shuts down.
