I think I would prefer one that notifies the tracking company when it thinks it has been stolen.

Anybody have any recommendations?

I have a Tracker Locate.

In the past, they retrieved a stolen car for me within 4 hours so now always go with Tracker (also featured a lot on Road Wars etc).

How new is the car? To keep a full warranty you'll need Porsche VTS. And then just pray that any villain that nicks your motor is also an OPC Approved Thief.

It's not that new, I would just like the satisfaction of if it were to be stolen catching them or getting it back!

I recently fitted MTrack to my new car. Because it's wireless my OPC confirmed that the warranty was not invalidated.

I have a letter from PGB somewhere very specifically saying that my Mtrack did contravene the terms of my warranty and would void it. That's when I stopped renewing the warranty!

By the way (shameless plug), as I don't need a tracker now for my insurance, I have my recently serviced mtrack (with optional motion sensor doodah) for sale if anyone's interested. Much cheaper than a new one biggrin

I never got to try it in anger, but I can certainly vouch for mtrack's customer service.

Skytag system has a good rep, few guys on the 930 site have one.

This is the self fitting one? How much do you want for it?

Any reason for that? Tracker generally use a Radar system I think but I paid a little extra for an upgraded unit that included GPS as well as Radar. Was that a waste of money?
