i dont know how far they are prepared to travel, but iv always had my alarms off these guys, they are very knowledgeable about all cars, and have recently upgraded the Toad Ai606 which was already on my Mk2 16V when i bought it.
Even if they wont travel to where u are, their website is a good source of info..

clifford are reconned to be the BEST....

but mostly all the cat 1 alarm makes are good...

as for microtechnics yeah i've used them and there alright...... and i had the car for 3 years and never had a problem with the immobiliser on it... that was a toad laserkey......

I have the Ai606 in mine and it's never had a problem.

The way I see it is this. go for Clifford if you want gadgets and Toad if you want reliability.
Either way, get it fited by someone that knows what they are doing. A badly fitted alarm will cause you a lot of grief.
