Autowatch Ghost watch, still worth it?

My lad had his Toyota Hilux stolen from the street a couple of weeks ago and as the insurance company has coughed up he is looking at another.

My Evoque came with one and it hasn't been stolen yet (desperate search for wood to touch) and I'm quite happy with it.

I have suggested a layered security approach, but I was wondering if they are still regarded as undefeatable by the average thief.

Personal experiences please, not "I heard from a bloke down the pub/facebook..." type reports.

Thanks.

I don't see the point of using the app. It's just looking for a security breach. I was going to put the app on my phone then thought why have a ghost if you just override it. Surely it's not that difficult entering in a few key presses. Even use the same ones if its that hard Range Rover Sport (gone): Mercedes S63 AMG Coupe: 992 Porsche Carrera 4S: Range Rover Fifty P400e
