Default Cheap tracker wanted

Just been looking for a cheap tracker on ebay and there's loads. Can anyone recommend any? Just want something i can use now and again swap between cars if needed.

type in Tk103 on ebay , you will need a mini sim card i use 02, i’ve had these for years , any tracker can drain battery a bit quicker , you call the sim the tracker sends you a text of speed and current location , it needs hiding in the car plus hard wiring but it’s pointless having it unless it’s hidden

Wouldn't mine any more tracker ideas. Even something that could also disable the car remotely? Doesn't have to be cheap lol.

Got a rewire Db2 on my car from Amazon, cheap and comes with a great app, I’ve even got it to txt my phone when the engine is started (but of a pain when it’s me starting it) but one day it might not be me 😆

The one i have texts you when the car is moved , you can send a code to shut the fuel pump off , i use an 02 sim card so it’s just a pay as you go maybe 10£ every few months or so ,when you call it it sends you a text message where it is on google maps plus the speed 👍
