Just waiting for my new (to me) RRS MY10 3.0 TDv6 in Stornaway (again)

Having contacted my insurance company, they say I must have a tracker fitted. I have not had this requested before (even on my last RRS which was the same value) and have no experience of the tracker products available. I'll obviously be doing a bit of homework but just wondered if any of you guys could pass on any words of wisdom ie Best makes, models, costs, issues etc...

Yeah, i would but I'd just renewed my policy when someone wrote off my old car so would lose remainder of policy (about ten months) if i changed. So, I'm tied til next year. RRS 3.0 SDV6 Autobiography Dynamic MY16 Firenze Red.

Guess you should just calculate the cost of the tracker + subscription and install and the balance of your insurance company vs a new policy with no tracker.... might still be cheaper to change Range Rover Vogue ‘17 TDV6

I quite like the idea of a tracker as it goes, so was really looking for some feedback from someone thats got one... RRS 3.0 SDV6 Autobiography Dynamic MY16 Firenze Red.

I just leave my wife in the car

Just had one fitted to mine trafficmaster installation £ 399.00 then you can pay yearly subscription or I paid £ 350.00 payment then it covers for as long as you own vehicle. Free for 3 months speed camera warning.
I had it fitted because of insurance cover but it also gives you peace of mind when leaving anywhere.

I had to get one fitted for the my insurance. I got cobratrak first installed in mine, it cost £250 for install and is £139 subscription per year. When I compared with other insurance companies it was still much cheaper to go with the tracker plus you have that added comfort knowing it is tracked. My sport has been in the garage a couple of times and when the battery was disconnected I got a phone call straight away from cobra. I really can't recommend it enough, go for it.

Problem these days is that most scumbags know where they are fitted and rip them out or jam them

My insurance company insisted I had one. The dealer said it had to be the LR branded one, otherwise it could void the vehicle warranty; in all the excitement of buying a new car, I said yes. I think I might have been 'had'  14.5MY SDV6 HSE Dynamic Indus silver/lunar/ebony 20" wheels, InControl, full-size spare, electric tow bar, adaptive xenons, adaptive cruise control, auto main beam assist. Gone: TDV8 HSE; Zermatt silver/ebony, 19" off road alloys, active diff, particle filter, tow pack (it was fun) BMW 730D SE (great car, sadly missed). Ford Focus RS mk2, Ultimate green, lux pack 2, bluetooth. The start of my mid-life crisis.
IN THE GARAGE: BMW i8 - the mid-life crisis continues and it's great fun.

Hmm, my dealer (Marshalls, Peterborough) said they don't even do trackers and refered me to a local independant.
I can't see how an aftermarket product like that could affect any warranty.
Me thinks you've got a case for being mis-sold Old Stager!
As a matter of interest, what make was it they fitted and what sort of cost was involved? RRS 3.0 SDV6 Autobiography Dynamic MY16 Firenze Red.

I don't have one fitted but from looking a few years ago on a previous car I remember that there was different types of transmitter so check the details.

I use this as an anti theft device....
