Righty, I WILL submit this post, even if I have to plug the bloody server directly into the Naional Grid!
The recovery rate for any high performance vehical accoarding to the police isnt that succesfull in defence TT.
I think you may be getting that particular issue confused. Those statistics may actually be relating to ALL high performance vehicles, irrespective of weather any kind of tracking device is fitted!
Tracker can provide independently audited figures of something like 98% recovery rates - now that is mighty impressive!
It shows that the quicker you contact the police, the more likely they are in finding it, results show the longer the car is missing, chances are you ARE NOT likely to see it again.
Then that would definately prove the need for an active, high quality, proven tracking device. With all the current Tracker products, the notification to the owner is nigh-on instant, and interception of the stolen car within 20minutes is regularly proven!
i think your saying about putting a tracker sticker whether you have or havent got one fitted is neither here nor there TT,anything to a thick Criminal may not realise, afteral how many brain cells do they genarally have.!!
Oh, no, I have to disagree with that, quite strongly.
OK, you may have a point, but which is unrelated. Yes, there are the low-life, single-cell Pikey/Chav brigade, who either target ancient Escorts/Sierras/Novas etc, for joyriding. They may also resort to a brick through the window of
any car, for the purposes of stealing the "Scott-Scott" on the dash, or the girly handbag under the passenger seat. These would bear no relation to the actual theft of a modern GTI or equivalent.
Generally, the newest, high-value, high-performance cars, are generally targeted and stolen "to order", by highly organised, and clever gangs of organised crims. These types would simply laugh at a Tracker sticker, and would actually consider it a vary easy picking, based on their own acute knowledge that the genuine Trackers do NOT have any kind of identifying elements, including stooopid stickers!
In Blowers case, they obvoiusly were watching his movements, and knew EXACTLY what they were after. If someone wants something, THEY WILL get it, one way or another.
Oh, agreed. BUT, if Blower had a Tracker fitted, there would have been a 98% chance he would have his car back! And no doubt the scrotes that lifted it, would be tasting an oaty breakfast!
BRING BACK THE DEATH PENALTY!
Nooooooo - that would be too kind for the scum.
Public flogging, with electrified car keys tied to the ends of the lashes. The number of lashes would be determined by the value of the stolen car, in pennies, not pounds, multiplied by the distance traveled from the owners last location, in millimetres!
