artic 595 Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 This is the time of year that criminals will be on the look out for those vehicles which are not alarmed and are unlocked. Espeacially on farm yards and rural areas. Mainly 4x4's are the targets. How many de-frost their cars on the drive whilst having a cup of tea in the house? How many just nip into the shop and leave their vehicle unlocked and sometimes still running? I have just had both my vehicles fitted with trackers. They do work and are detected within several minutes. I'm afraid that those days of locks and alarms are not enough to prevent the criminals from taking your vehicle. The trackers are monitored 24hours, and if your vehicle was to be taken then all the appropriate agencies will be aware instantly and locate your vehicle asap. Also the other benefit of having a tracker is that you can get discount on your insurance. Stay safe people. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pointer 543 Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 Had a tracker on a discovery and whilst it was never stolen they did ring me once to ask if it was ok when being loaded onto a recovery vehicle.it was flagged up once the back wheels were raised. However I found that the insurance discount was next to nothing and don't think it's worth the cost of getting one fitted unless you own something a bit special.
