Thanks for these,

Whats the trend over the year in the different types of thieving? Guess burgling's becoming more common?

I take it this is just the "Tracker" and not trackstar, navtrak etc?

Usual question:

How many tracker equipped vehicles stolen but not recovered?

Do these trackers come with a security sticker for the window warning that the tracker has been fitted?

If so, where can I get one of these stickers without buying the tracker?

I think the idea is you don't advertise if you have a tracker, as then the theives will rip your car appart searching for one...hopefully the police will catch up with them whilst they still have your car in good condition hopefully nicking the thieves as well...

Seems logical. I think you get an alarm to warn people off and a tracker to get your car back if stolen...

I have both

No trackers do not come with a sticker, THANK GOD!!! The theieves could simply look around the car to find it before they drove off if they knew one was fitted!!!!!

If your car is recovered because of the tracker (i.e. after a few hours), does it still get tagged 'Stolen/Recovered' on the HPI register?

Cheers,

Tim.

I would be intrested in the answer to that too - ie If your car is recovered because of the tracker (i.e. after a few hours), does it still get tagged 'Stolen/Recovered' on the HPI register?

Anyone out there that knows the answer ?

No it doesnt unless there is a major insurance claim.

Yes these are Tracker only not Navtrak etc.
Tracker Say they are 99% effective so i guess 1 a month is not recovered, but they did recover 5 other stolen vehicles with the Trackered ones.

And no I dont work for tracker etc.etc

Mr.M

I expect that the 1 per month accounts for cars which are torched by theives.
