Im looking to fit a tracking device to monitor my Rangie incase of theft and would also like to upgrade the horrendously rubbish alarm siren. I have now spent a fair amount of time and hard earned cash on my car and dont wish to go through the aggro of it disappearing off the drive.

Using a steering wheel lock and vehicle always blocked in on drive but neither of these will stop it disappearing whilst out and about!

What makes and companies are good to go for? Any recommendations and yearly subscription fees please. Has anyone found a replacement siren for the inadequate Land Rover item?

Not sure about which tracking device but i have seen some threads on the alarm being very quiet.

It's probably health and safety so it doesn't hurt the thieving scumbag's ears or some other EU directive.

Anyway, found this link on the Disco3 site about livening the siren up, not sure if it works as i haven't tried it myself but hope it helps.

If we all point our RR's in the same direction and accelerate at the same time can we turn back time?

Hi Scrumpy,

Yes i did try that but unfortunately it doesn't work on later cars, was hoping it would revert to horns but never worked  2003 BMW M5 - 5 Litres of V8 Optimax Slurping Goodness in Carbon Black

I had a tracker cat5 plus on my old c-class which was fantastic. Being able to login and see the car in realtime was great but you had to carry a fob with you every time you drive the car, this was a pain in the but obviously made it harder to steal.

I have one in my current RRS but it was installed by the last owner and i only get a call from them if something happens I can't track it with GPS or anything.

Well im glad to see vehicle security is high up on people's priorities given that its not on Land Rovers  2003 BMW M5 - 5 Litres of V8 Optimax Slurping Goodness in Carbon Black

Mine had a tracker fitted by the LR dealership when I bought it nearly 6 years ago. Got a life time service for it so it's been a case of "fit and forget". I know it works because I got a call from the tracker company when my RRS was flat bedded with blown turbos. The tracker is "Trafficmaster Trackstar".

Sorry I can't help more than that Chris.  2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

Oh yes, according to many, the RRS isn't a real Land Rover anyway...  2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

Thanks Wayne, my research continues!  2003 BMW M5 - 5 Litres of V8 Optimax Slurping Goodness in Carbon Black

I'm aware that some tracker alarms have remote shutoff so if someone steals it when the vehicle comes to a stop at lights etc the engine can be shut off. Might be worth looking at.

Thanks Gerd1986, there is so much out there and its a total nightmare so a full research will be needed. Also dont want loads and loads of wiring looms and cables cut and chopped into if i can help it, as i dont want further problems down the line.  2003 BMW M5 - 5 Litres of V8 Optimax Slurping Goodness in Carbon Black

I've just ordered the Rewire 104 Pro tracker and hope to fit it at the weekend.
It's quite chunky weighing in at 300g but that's because it's got a 6000mAh battery which is claimed to last months between charges (depending on how active you make it).
It also comes with a hardwire kit and even a fuel pump cut-out relay so you can remotely cut the fuel if you are alerted that it's been stolen.
There is a free 1 year subscription to their www.gpslive.co.uk tracking site with follow on cost of £10 per year or £20 for life!
All in for £90 seems pretty good to me to protect my pride and joy and possibly catch the thieving !!!
I will probably not bother with fuel cut-off to start with depending on where I decide to fit it but I'll try and take some pics and report back how it seems.
I'm not doing this to reduce insurance premiums, purely just for piece of mind.
