Land Rovers 'stolen to order' in Essex
Police believe Land Rovers in Essex are being stolen to order.

Three Range Rovers and a Freelander, together worth more than £100,000, have been stolen from Chelmsford, White Roding and Witham in the last week.

Thieves have broken into the owners' homes to steal the keys to the cars.

Detectives have warned owners of Land Rovers to be extra vigilant and keep keys out of sight.

Always an issue with cars like these. Touch wood never experienced it myself but I have always been a huge fan of tracker. I've always had tracker fitted to my vehicles and whilst browsing their website in preparation for the new arrival I noticed a new product called tracker locate. This stops thieves jamming the tracker signal which they can now do. It doesn't cost that much more either. Check out tracker website if you want more info.

Yes we did as we had a Tracker fitted when purchased on. Lifetime subscription. However when we needed to turn it on it seemed that Stratstone had never paid Tracker the subscription so it took a little time for me to convince Tracker we had in fact paid it, we were in St Lucia on holiday at the time and therefore thought we had lost the car and probably not insured as the insurance was based on having a tracker fitted and subscription paid.
I have to say I would have prefers in hindsight to have not had the car back as it was ripped about inside as they tried to find the tracker and has never had the same appeal since.
