With motor homes becoming an increasingly popular way of holidaying for families, finding the best vehicle tracker for your motor home is an important part of protecting your investment. Today a typical 4 berth motorhome commands an average price of around £40,000 with a 6 berth priced from £50,000 and beyond. Along with its increasing popularity is the alarming number of motor home thefts. One such example is the theft of a 2016 Burstner from the war cemetery in Anzio, Italy (http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/articles/view.asp?id=108).
How awful that would be for people enjoying their foreign holiday to come back to the car park and find their ‘home’ gone, leaving them stranded. However, recent figures show that the number of motorhome thefts is going down due to the increasing popularity of fitting motor home trackers in them.
A motor home tracker is an ingenious 21st century piece of kit which will give your motorhome the protection it deserves and is the next best thing to employing someone to guard it around the clock. I was amazed when I watched a video of a static caravan being retrieved the same morning it was stolen since its tracker had been fitted 5 years before, was battery operated and had never had to be activated before; that’s how effective they are!
Forget the ‘passive’ protection of wheel clamps and security posts because if you want to be sure your investment is totally protected there is only one choice: a Thatcham accredited Cat 5 or 6 motorhome tracker with built-in VHF GPS/GPRS technology. The moment anyone removes your motorhome without your permission the motor home tracker will be activated alerting the control centre who will in turn notify the police giving the optimum chance of recovery at home or abroad and can even help reduce the cost of your insurance.

There can be few vehicles on the road that are most instantly recognisable than a Jaguar; its sleek lines and gorgeous curves have made it one of the most desirable cars of all time. With prices ranging from £30,775.00 for the entry level XE through the XF and and F Type Sports models to well over £60,000 for the XJ Luxury and with the I-Pace Concept, the first ever Jaguar all electric 5 seater sports car waiting in the wings, it is small wonder that car thieving gangs seek them out too.
Despite the introduction of keyless cars which one would have thought made car thefts less likely a recent report showed that “Thieves are finding clever ways to bypass electronic locking systems. A recent Sky News investigation found that nearly half the 89,000 vehicles broken into in London in 2013 were stolen through ‘keyless theft’, where the car is hacked electronically so it can be driven away without any need for the key. And just last week, the Met Police launched Operation Endeavour in response to a rise in theft of motor vehicles, believed to be the result of the increase in organised criminals stealing keyless vehicles using a device which bypasses the vehicle’s electronics”.
Therefore ‘passive’ methods of protection like wheel clamps, security posts and alarms are no match for the determined professional car thief so what can be done to stop your car being stolen, never to be returned? The answer today is to have a car tracker fitted which, with its VHF/GPS and GPRS Thatcham accredited technology guarantees that its every move is tracked and communicated to the control centre then the police and you.
This clever device, which can even result in lower insurance premiums, is secreted within the vehicle in such a way as to be undetected by the thief but will respond as soon as the car is taken away unbeknown to you. The car tracker’s signals will be beamed to the control centre alerting them and setting in motion the recovery process.

Install the best best car tracker for your Audi and protect your investment with a car tracker from Vehicle Tracking Tech.
Among the most sought after cars on the market today the AUDI with its distinctive logo of four interlinked rings is near to the top with its wide range of models from the A1,2,3,4,5,6,7 to A8 plus the Q1,2,3,5,7 range and the news that the A3 Sportback with its innovative plug-in hybrid technology has been named 'Best Family Car of The Year 2017' by WhatCar? magazine.
Unsurprisingly the A3 starts at almost £20,000 rising to well over £40,000 while the entire range begins at a ‘modest’ £14,000 rising to an incredible £130,000+. With our cars costing nearly as much today as our houses we are becoming even more aware that we must do all we can to protect them from the unscrupulous car thieves who make it their business to part us from our prized possessions. The models they favour is simply dictated by demand so we need to protect every one of them, though recent statistics show that the Audi S3 is the most stolen car in Britain with almost one S3 in every 100 ending up stolen by car thieving gangs. National Vehicle Crime Intelligence Service figures show that 75,600 cars were stolen in England and Wales last year, a nine per cent rise over 2014 and the first increase in car thefts since the 1990s. The theft rate for the S3 was the highest of all, with 8.6 in every 1,000 cars – or just under one in every hundred – stolen throughout 2015 as thieves increasingly target expensive vehicles.
