I seem to remember a recent TV item (Top Gear?) about car theft. The reporter flew over the main road from Nigeria's container port and picked up 5 different vehicles fitted with Trackers! All were stolen of course.

Seems if the Thieving B's can get them into a container they are effectively screened.

surely its not as simple as waiting for the battery to run flat is it?
warm in the winter, cool in the summer. stirred not shaken, always stylish.

best i've managed so far is £399 to purchase and fit for the rac trackstar(before invoking a ford prefect stylee "fancy a write up" for a club discount) followed by £10 a month or £320 for the life of your ownership of the car.
