A Clifford concept 500 should fit what your after as it has a turbo timer as an option, be warned though that this invalidates the cat1 status of your alarm (stupid i know) along with having the black jax anti hijack feature if its activated (which is stupid as it stops people driving off with your keys).
Not much else will give you value for money alarm wise (proximity sensors, anti hijack etc) and be VERY careful of who you use to install it (just look at some of the other threads!)

Oh and i also suggest you invest in a Small Disklok as these are a real pain to take off if your a thief and a great deterrent to unwanted attention (costco do them for around 40 quid).

Cool

Thanks for the responses.

Going for the Avital Maxx1 Clifford G5 Alarm, with turbo timer disconnected to make Thatcham 1 valid.

Doctor Clifford.

Having a imported wrx delivered in the new year. looking for the following.

Alarm Sigma M30 or equivalent which clifford is this equivelant to ??. and how much more for a better one you can add options to (blackjax etc).

Tracking Device.

Quite fancy a RAC trackstar need either guardian or protector for insurance discount. As I understand this is the only one you can move to a new car ??. Would consider a Tracker Monitor (horizon to pricey).

cheers

Peter

so what deal can you do ??.
