Can anyone help me. I'm trying to find out what sort of alarm systesm is fitted to my car. Its a 96 P reg Chimaera with the standard factory fit alarm.

I'd go and have a look at the handbook or car, but I'm several thousand miles away just now.

It could be a Foxguard F1-11 + microwave, they normally have two button remote controls.

Its a round brown fob with one blak rubber button. Don't know if its original or not.

Sounds like the Meta system, but thought they changed after 96:

Meta M99T control unit & battery backed siren
Movement Detector - GEC Plessey Mk4 microwave unit
Meta M36T immobiliser

That sounds about right. May have changed after 96, but this is a 96 Chim.

Cheers

Nevin - it'll never work that far away - even if you point it at your head.

Could be a Cobra, though? My sister's 96Chimaera has Cobra, my 2000 Chimaera has the Meta.
