Security - Vehicle Tracker

[DHGTR]

Guys, anyone got any recommendations or horror stories of vehicle trackers?

Probably best to mail me rather than put it on a public forum.

To my knowledge there has never been an Ultima stolen.
Not even heard of anything attempted.

save your money for something shiny.

I use COBRA as the insurance company insisted on one if the value of the car is over £50 000.

i have tracker fitted.... required if over 40k..

I too heard never been stolen before and quite frankly I have hidden fuel pump switches, by passes everwhere so they couldnt start it and the garage is alarmed too....

the cars too low to put on a trailer so let them try..

On a seperate note my classic cars i dont lock the doors... if they want in they will damage it if locked... if they cant start it they walk away!!!!!!

Thanks guys,

it's an insurance requirement for me also. I now have some ideas, so thanks to all that replied.

On Youtube search Two Guys Garage. They have a short clip about how to use an old cell phone as a tracking device. It looks like a cheap and easy way to give peace of mind. I will probably rig one up myself. It should cost less for a pay as you go plan over a one year period compared to paying a GPS tracking company for the same period. I have not compared pricing myself yet though....

Hi Kenn,
The trouble with that I think is that it is not a recognised/certified system recognised by insurance companies.
