My bx has started locking the doors on central locking after a few minutes of driving, and even if you pull the door lock back up it instantly re locks, but seems fine once I have turned the engine off.
Has anyone else had this before?
Anyone have any clues on how to solve?
Is my car haunted?

The difference between 'involvement' and 'commitment' is like an eggs-and-ham breakfast: the chicken was 'involved' - the pig was 'committed'.

I had instant unlocking which was a failed passenger door lock motor.
Could be the key switch - make sure its properly disengaged - ie the key slot is vertical when the key is removed - as it all gets a bit sloppy with age. Otherwise hunt for loose or dirty connections first then suspect the door / wing looms - pushing and pulling may effect a temporary cure and help locate it.
Are you locking it with a key or the plip? Do you have a plip - if not try using the passenger door lock and see if there is any difference.
