In my opinion, if they want your car, they will take it at night, drive it out of the country, before you have had the chance to call the tracker company.
What utter nonsence! Providing you get the "proper" Tracker, and not some imitation, then
Tracker phone you, the moment any unauthorised movement is detected! Furthermore, Tracker have detectors permanently positioned on all the major UK ports. They also have Tracker monitoring and activation in many European countries, unlike any "competators".
Obviously they do work, otherwise the companies making them would be out of business,
Some work, namely Tracker, and some don't. There was an article in either the Times or Telegraph regarding scamming bastards claiming to offer so called tracking systems - they were prosecuted by Trading Standards, fined heavily, and were banned from being Company Directors. I had personaly met those bunch of wayne kerrs at a MotorShow at the NEC a few years earlier, and could see right through their "sales patter" - sadly, some peeps took the bait hook, line and sinker!
but as you have GAP insurance, I wouldn't bother, unless you plan on keeping your car for a long time and you get a decent discount on your insurance.
I strongly disagree. As the old saying goes, "prevention is better than cure". We all know what scum-bags many insurance companies can be, when it comes to worming their way out of settling claims!
Or you could buy a tracker sticker off ebay for £3!
Err, that would really help - NOT. The genuine Tracker systems do NOT have any identifying stickers, for an extremely valid reason. If you were to put one of those stickers on your car, then that would simply serve as a blatant advert to the low lifes who target expensive cars, that the owner is a tight-arse who can't be bothered with a genuine Tracker.
