You still have to pay £40 a year to access the site to allow you to track the vehicle. Plus it looks like you have to do the tracking bit yourself which is of no use. With the decent tracker ones they do the tracking for you and get the authorities involved.

Just checked on a website online for the datatool tracker and it reckons its a £109 annual fee.

Yeah the tracker monitor, horizon etc are around £100-125 a year but they do all the donkey work if they detect unauthorised movement, ie call you to make sure it is being stolen then call the police and get them to pursue the vehicle.

If you get this cheap un off ebay you wont know its being nicked until you check to see if its been nicked or not by which time it may already be in parts.

If it isnt in parts and you realise its not where you left it and it is instead in a unit on an industrial estate what you going to do? Ring the police, im sure they'll listen to you and be round there in no time, honest! Or you could pop round there and ask for your bike back!
