They send a qualified auto electrician to fit the tracker btw.

Seems like a good idea, even more so for people who dont do many miles.

Not much cheaper for me due to the miles i do but may be of help to somone else?

Also lets them know just where your car is to steal..

[Jon_nova1]

wouldn't it tell them if you was speeding? or more every move you make?

[Benn]

Every move the car makes, each trip you do and how long and where you are and what speed, have one in my work van.

[Jon_nova1]

oh, its the same as that? where you get a call of the boss asking why you haven't moved in 15 minutes? lol

[Benn]

That's the one.


Having a wa*k in a lay-by isn't a good reason either :(

[MattBrown]

Every time you speed, every time you do anything really!

Also, there a peice of pish to remove!

Best thing to do, if your going for a mad run, park in a pub, "Disable" the tracker, do your fun, back to the pub, and re-enable it!

Qualified electrician my ****!
I have read, no less than twice - these muppets have broken someone's car with knackaring the wiring!
I'm sure one was an Audi A8 on eBay (I'll see if there's a valid link somewhere).

If i had this, i'd be tempted to hook it up to a battery in the garage or similar, good job my insurance is cheap enough lol

[Southie]

The problem I see with this is that if plenty of people start thinking "oow I like this, cheap insurance" and it starts doing well then where all knackered. The Government will want them installing into everyones motors and then no more spontaneous drives out. :(

Pay as you go driving. :wtf:

[Jon_nova1]

and the ones that know how to pick up a haynes will know how to get them out as quick as they were put in

anyway, the government would expect us to pay for installation, so it'll never happen lol

[General Baxter]

lol they want 2138.63 for the cav in std form lol

[Jack]

Like fcuk am I giving a free record of where I drive to some total stranger

The government were on about pay as you go VED a while back, using a similar box type thing. That very quickly got kicked into touch
