Alarm for Porker

[dontlift]

Ok need an alarm for me ikkle 944 which has to live on the streets of Manchester during the week, with sat nav etc on display......

Any got any recomendations, anything I should stay clear of, any decent installers in the east mids / leicester area?

I have a Laserline 996 cat 1 on my 944, and although nobody has tried to steal the car, I have still had it broken into and the stereo stolen outside my flat in Leeds City Centre. Nobody takes a blind bit of notice of alarms around here.

Sounds about right, but anything is better than nothing which is what i currently have

My car has to have a cat 1 alarm/immobiliser fitted for my insurers to cover it. Haven't had any problems with the laserline in the 3 years I've had the car. Can control windows, sunroof etc if you have them connected up.

The reason I sold my Porsche 944 was because I had to get a CAT1 alarm fitted and even then the premium was going to be £1400 ish. I'd already considered an elise an when I found that to be £650 a year I decided to get rid.

The main problem was servicing down this way - there are otnnes of great specialists up north but down here they look at 944's with disdain which is a real pity as they're such great cars.

I've found that with one of the specialists up here. They don't seem to be willing to put the effort in on a 944 even when charging me a grand for a service. I have just started using Hartech and can thoroughly recommend them.

My insurance is £500 a year, but being employed by the insurance company helps a bit.
