Question Tracking Device Any Advice?

I am looking to install a Tracking system to my Scoob. I have done a bit of basic research on the Net, but there appears to be loads of different versions.

What do you recommend? How much does it cost? What will reduce my insurance? What have you got fitted?

Thanks in advance

Dan,

Ive got a Tracker Monitor on my scooby and it cost me £400 fitted,it appeared to give me quite a good saving on my insurance with Tescos, not sure of the exact amount though.Ive had no problems with this model up to yet.

What car did a review recently they said that Eagle Trak was the best, but I had trouble getting a quote. Their price was £598 Plus fitting. Next was Tracker Horizon £608 plus fitting. Rock bottom was RAC Trakstar plus £420 plus fitting. I am having mine done in next few days Tracker Monitor.

A lot of insurance companies will insist on a tracker - therefore i went for the cheapest one
