2013 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 HSE Java Black

Ghost or Tracker

I've recently purchased a 2013 RRS HSE Black edition. Loving the car so far! Question on security really. Was thinking of purchasing a Ghost and or a tracker. My thinking now is one or the other. Any opinions on which very welcome. Not sure if my car is high value enough for the crims but worth asking the question.
Thanks

2008 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Java Black

A friend of mine got his car back using just an apple air tag under the seat.

The ghost seems over complicated.
Why not just a fuel immobilizer switch under the dash.

I use Samsung Smart Tags in my car and on on my key-rings, luggage etc. They're proven to be better than the Apple ones, but it doesn't really matter.

I used to live in London, so a Ghost system would have been the most sensible. From an engineering perspective, I think it would be better as trackers are easily discovered and disarmed.

I just use one of these now: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B06XP21DK6?ie=UTF8&th=1

It won't stop 'em, but it'll slow 'em down enough for me to set the dog on 'em.

Likewise I hid a couple of Apple AirTags with the speakers removed and a big yellow Stoplock.
If they want to steal it they will but if you can make it look less appealing than the other RRS parked a few spaces down that’s the best you can do…

I had both fitted 5 1/2 years ago and your right its a bit overkill now,
if I was doing it now I would go with a tracker only, as for the budget
you have its entirely your choice,

Apple AirTags & Samsung Smart Tags are much cheaper with no yearly
charge, a tracker will always have a yearly or multiyear oncost.. ===========================================

For my two - penneth.

I live in Sheffield
where car crime is rife to say the least
So it was a no brainer for me to have both the ghost2 and a tracker fitted. All in 1k with lifetime, my ownership tracker included.

I also use a disc lock on the steering wheel.
Both the Ghost and the disc-lock took some getting used to to be honest. However still have the motor nearly four years later.
Would I again............. YES

Just my two - penneth as said.

All sound advice, thanks. For now i've ordered that beast of a steering lock and a Samsung Smart tag.
Cheers
