Whatever you do, do not get a Vodafone tracker.

They're the only manufacturer that Porsche install and is basically a requirement to keep your warranty in a new vehicle. Vodafone did a buy out of the company and rebranded to Vodafone Automotive around 2017/8. I could write about all the problems I've had with them but just trust me on this one.

I’m thinking of getting a Vodafone Tracker - has anyone got any thoughts?

I use a Global Telemetrics Tracker and immobiliser, been using them for 12 years now. Current version (Trident CAT 6) also allows me to immobilise the car from anywhere with my phone.

So I've just been looking at these and thought I'd call by insurance company, Esure, to see what if any requirement they would have for a tracker to be fitted (what Thatcham level for example) and what, if any, policy saving there would be.  Esure tell me that there would not be any saving, which isn't the best, but more importantly as it's a change to the policy they would charge me £26 for the privilege of amending the policy - crazy!  :undecided:

Whenever I renew I get asked the question, so it must carry some weighting?

In fairness, I didn’t buy for any Insurance savings, that’s the icing on the cake, I bought it for additional peace of mind👍
