CHEAP TRACKERS

[Duke Blues 15]

It's all about Location, Location, location

[Jason 5]

I suppose that's where 'more modern' cars win out with their higher plastic content and many now have SATNAV / stubby style ariels fitted to the roof anyway.

 

I was thinking where would be suitable on a car like a Mk1 /2 Cortina.

I can't think of anywhere that's not blindingly obvious. :(

Now; if you have a fibreglass bonnet / bootlid / wings for example though.....

Morning chaps just back from a week on the windy but nice flamborough head :thumbup:

 

I have receved a pm, from a BSC member regarding trackers,THANK YOU ! :thumbup:

 

 

I recently had a web based tracker system fitted an Autowatch Track and Trace system through Global Telemetrics at a coast of £350 installed by an auto electrician plus annual fee of £124.

 

The car is monitored 24 hour's a day. The owner will receive a phone call alert if battery is disconnected or vehicle moves without the engine running.

 

I tested the system without warning the monitoring company and received a phone call within 5 minutes of vehicle moving. ✔

 

Car is constantly monitored and report available at anytime as to where the car has been,

(also tested and confirmed). ✔

 

Via an app the monitoring company can be informed when the car is moving legitimately.

too expensive - I have been offered the same level of service for a LOT less than that - though admittedly I did ask for a quote for 3 vehicles it was a fraction of that cost .

I'm liking this one from Vodafone https://www.trackershop-uk.com/products/car-trackers/vodafone-protect-connect-gps-tracker/

the subscription is only £49 a year and first year is included.

My vodaphone losses signal in a few places where I live and down the Cornwall way it was shocking coverage

I'd not trust a gps tracker on its own cheap back up maybe

My MK3 came with a tracker fit by the previous owner.  I just had to create an account and pay the subscription fee from the company who sold it to him which is very reasonable in my view. It's only been a couple of months but so far so good. If anyone needs an alternative to compare check them out  https://www.tracetrax.com/car-gps-trackers/ .
