It happend in ILFORD .......... if yu don't know it ...... it's about 10 mins away from Beckton, where mine was !

[necromax]

I'd be interested... Tracker Horizon is the GPS one, I have the Monitor on my Impreza, police found it in about 30 minutes :) Would have been quicker if he helicopter had been available. I'd be interested, depending on price etc..

Will make sure i'm extra vigilant thats for sure.

Found a little info while searching the web...........

Lexus dealer installs

So maybe we can get them done at the dealer.........obviously will be a SMALL premium to pay there but maybe with our gold discounts :winky: :winky:

I really can't believe this, I think that has almost completely made up my mind not to trade over mine for a newer one, I think I'll just keep mine for now

I'm really interested in this, asked my dealer when I was down there, and they said about £1000 for the horizon one with lifetime subscription (I think thats about normal price). If there's a possibility of a saving, I'll hold out for the minute :winky:

Bad news all these jackings.

My area is not to bad, but should the price be ok, then id be interested.

Watched a program om Men & Motors yesterday from Australia. Thye showed a car with their cersion of the tracker. It not only had GPS but the operator could see on his screen the road the car was on, the direction it was going and the speed :)

You can get one in this country that you can monitor yourself on the internet ( local dealer fits them ), I guess then though you may stuggle to get the blues & twos to chase it.

I'm interested in one mate....

[Jiberjaber]

I am sure I saw a list price of around 500 quid for the Tracket from Lexus. Scoobynet had a gb on with a co in Brum a while ago when I was researching blackjaxx.

[amolkarnik]

costs permitting, put me down on this list.

you are assuming that the insurance company will pay out enough to allow you to buy a new one do you have GAP insurance?

[newport]

They will give me the market value, Thats fine by me. I dont want the car back with all that SCUM all over it. :yack: :yack:

[marcus]

i'm interested in this........... :)

[Kremmen]

I wonder why they don't adopt the ploy of the early Xantia's and some Peugeot's ?

Both had a keypad that needed the correct code before the fuel pump would work. If the engines not running they won't get it to, even with the keys.

Now call me cynical but if no cars are getting stolen then the insurance companies are not buying replacement ones and sales suffer

Having been the victim of a car jacking, and having the car quickly recovered thanks to Tracker, I would have to say I never felt the same about the car. The only upside was that I was able to strip mods and get some cash back. I traded the Impreza in and got the Lex. Incidentally, the insurance were automatically going to scrap my car until I asked why. It had a burned out clutch, keys were missing and gearshift had been damaged when they tired to break the barrier deadlock. I think damage was approximately 1500ish, yet they would have opted to pay out. they repaired the gearshift, replaced the locks, replaced the alarm, and put in a new clutch/flywheel.

My old man has a XM V6 with this keypad, so the scum will get him around the neck and force the code out of him.

Well you could get a XM who the hell is going to steal one of them? :shutit:
