Hi Everyone
I’ve got some insurance quotes “which made me sit down” and I can get it a lot cheaper if there is a tracker fitted. So my question is what is the best tracker to get and quickest to get fitted.

I realize that most MH fitting services are swamped with work at this time of year so getting it done quickly might be a big problem.

Is there one you can fit yourself which would be accepted by the insurance company or not.

Best Wishes Tony
 
There are still several insurance companies out there that don't require a tracker. My van was first registered in 2014 at over £80,000 and no tracker fitted to this day. You may have a more valuable van though.

No I'm not that rich LOL; But it really surprises me the wide differences in insurance with all the same details.

I would seriously weigh up the cost of tracker v insurance discount.

A friend of mine had his very nice motorhome stolen off his driveway last week. The thieves accessed and drove it away without the keys, found the tracker and threw it out of the window a couple of miles down the road along with the number plates. :-(

WOW it's a bit frightening the thought of that but at least the insurance will I assume pay out as he had a tracker fitted.

We've got the Phantom alarm/tracker fitted. They have a mobile fitting service I believe. Google Phantom.
 
Hi Everon Just to let you know that I have got insurance through a broker called Perfomance Direct they have got my insurance down drastically and they provide a tracker also; so problem solved,
It's probably not as good at the tracker Eddie vanbitz supplies but at least it gets me fully insured quickly; some insurers would not even give me a price.

But for balance an extract of an email in this morning

Please can you disable my account and also update any records to show I no longer own this campervan, I do not personally know the details of the new owner due to it being sold via the broker. I passed on many emails with instructions, gave spare fobs and told the dealer where the hidden override keys were etc so hopefully that was explained to the new owner.

There was a bit of drama as the van was immediately stolen, but thanks to the Van Bitz Shadow tracker working and not being found by the thief or disabled the campervan has been recovered.
