Tracker

Vidge · 03-12-2008, 07:29 AM

Are any of you guys fitting a tracker to your cars? i am having one on mine, just wondered what peoples opinions were.

I will most certainly be getting a tracker, but not the BMW one. The annual charge was rather steep. When my wife got her 3er, she got a life time membership option on the "TRACKER" that cost the same as the annual fee for the BMW one.

Even my sales rep agreed that it wa a bit steep :-)

So after market here I come!!

puma how easy is it to get one and install one...does garage specialist need to install it? where does it go in the car?

and yes it is a good idea come to think of it but it put me off when i saw how expensive bmw tracker was

I thought this was standard with BMW assist? Can't they tell where your car is?

it might be for you guys in the US butin Europe we have to pay for everything. you even got xenon headlights as part of the package we had to pay for those and they are about £550 extra thats about $1100

I have been to www.tracker.co.uk website - but they have lifted their prices too!! Looks like ~£600-800 for a life time tracker. That is about the same an BMW!!!

Gosh , it used to be sooo much cheaper!!

I wouldn't want my stolen car back. That's why I'd never install a tracker.
