A method of remotely activating or deactivating a vehicle function (e.g. opening a door), including defining a reachability model 16 for the vehicle 12 and a computer (e.g. server, cloud, backend 20) external to the vehicle 12; receiving a user request 22 for enabling or disabling the vehicle function; determining an availability of the vehicle 12 to communicate with the computer 20 based on the reachability model 16; and if the vehicle is available for communication, transmitting one or more activation or deactivation signals 48 to the vehicle 12 for enabling or disabling the vehicle function. User request 22 may be from a mobile device 28. The signal 48 may be transmitted only if the vehicle is reachable according to the reachability model 16. The availability state may be predicted based on vehicle events of the vehicle 12. Second aspect: method of defining a reachability model 16 for an availability state of vehicle 12 to communicate with the computer 20, by collating and analysing vehicle events from multiple vehicles (36, fig 2).
