Its a long story but i have 2 trackers fitted to my car,i have a tracker retrieve and a rac trackstar which 1 would u subscribe 2?

If you have to go with one, go with the cheapest.
Both do the same thing.
I have had both, currently on Trackstar because it was standard fitment on the STi.
No idea if one is better than the other though.

Its a long story but i have 2 trackers fitted to my car,i have a tracker retrieve and a rac trackstar which 1 would u subscribe 2?

if you dont need them for insurance, i would leave them mate, if it gets knocked, do you really want it back???


i wouldnt

I wouldnt either, top crims disable them anyway and scum crims rip the heart out of your motor, would not fancy it back :(

Sorry to drag this up but I've been offered a very good deal on RAC Trackstar plus. Insurance don't require a tracker so it would be for piece of mind.

What experiences have people had of this system recently?

i have heard stories of scoobs disappearing off the face of the earth with these fitted. Sadly i have one for insurance but wouldnt expect them to find it if the scoob went walkies.

I've personally had nothing but trouble with RAC Trackstar, never dealt with a more useless bunch in my life, so if i was u i'd use the other one

I have Trackstar fitted as standard and only use it cos my insurance requires it. I personally think its alod of rubbish.

I've used Navtrak in the past and found them very good. You get a fob and need to disable the tracker before moving the car.

You can test the system whenever. Just do not disarm the tracker and sure enough you'll get a call within 10 mins saying where your car is and if your driving or not.

Tracker no longer fit the Retrieve anymore, only Monitor or Horizon. Just had my Scoob done.

Crims are now nicking motors then then leaving them for a day or two in the street. If plod comes along, it probably has some tracker device fitted. If, not "Parts R Us" so look out.

my advice dont bother.
whats the point unless you want the car back regardless.

It's mine.

Not their's.

I paid for it, so why let some lowlife scum mucher have it!!!

Just my opinion though!

Just my opinion though!get a blackjax fitted, if it goes it wont be for long and wont have gone far. trackers dont always work anyway.

How much is blackjax as I've been offered the Trackstar plus all in for £200 which I thought was a good deal even for only a year.

Yes but don't you want to try and improve the chance of catching the B******s who nick your ca???? surely with Tracker Horizon there must be a chance they can be tracked as soon as they steal it?

sorry if im being a plum but whats a "blackjax"?:wonder:



:D

I think crim pulls knife you hand car over and it stops 100 metres down road

Is this a good system if you are hijacked. Surely they will get out run back, get you by the throat and make you start the car again minus blackjack thingy. Pardon my ignorance if its not as simple as that.

As far as I know, RAC Trackstar can actually tell which way and speed the car is moving whereas Tracker reliy on Pig waggon having a detector. This may have changed since my days of having Trcker.

I have a tracker retrieve which despite the insurance needing it at 25 I think its worth every penny for peice of mind. Heard some bad things about them on SNet but for what its worth I'd have one!!!

Pardon my ignorance if its not as simple as that.ignorance aside.......the blackjax is a fantastic system as it comes into effect if your keys are stolen or you are dragged out of your car. if you have any sense and you are car jacked surely you are not going to stand in the middle of the road waiting for the scum to come for you?
also is the robbing twa* going to know you the caracteristics of a blackjax and is he/she really going to hang around trying to speak to a deaf and dumb person and risk doing a stretch of atleast a week behind bars if caught. mine cost me 170.00:)

Fantastic bit of kit. We have done loads for members also done some group buys. Its one of the first things we put on our own cars alongside a tracker. We do the blackjax for £150 for members. The Tracker retrieve has been discontinued but trackers do work & we have the certificates to proof how many scoobies have been recovered once stolen with trackers installed by us.

Another alternative to the blackjax system is the new Clifford Callguard. It can be set up so that you can immobilise your vehicle by sending it an SMS from any mobile phone. It can also be used as a GSM pager so that you are notified via text if your car is broken into. It's a very neat piece of kit !
