Yes it is worth it, we chase around like headless chickens when there's an activation, trying desperately to be the first to find the vehicle.
not worth it IMHO
After Dave has chased and (hopefull) caught the perpertrator - you will eventually get your car back !
You dont know what other damage has been done to the car whilst in the hands of the thieves. sure the insurance company will fix the column, sort out any damaged locks and paint and then valet the car so it looks prisitine again.
But what happens 1 month later when a mechanical failure occurs due to them thrashing the car to within an inch of its life? - into the stealers - insurance company phone up .........
Sir.... the gearbox failure just happened - it was obviously nothing to do with the thieves driving it through a field - and obviously the fault of the 1/2 very careful owners who have abused it for the last couple of years !!!
Get an agreed value on the vehicle for an extra fee. The extra costs involved work out about the same as a tracker and although difficult - you could probably replace your car if you looked hard enough, and actually had the necessary funds to purchase a decent replacement.

Dumb arse here...what does IMHO stand for?
IMHO = In My Honest Opinion.
BTW I previosuly had an Lancer Evo VI and it's almost impossible to insure one without a Tracker so it sort of forced my hand
You're pretty sure you'll get it back but would you want it back? (as has been said)

Thanks Phil....
I've got one fitted. My decision was based upon whether I would find another, as there's not many C43's around,should it go walk about...
