I'm looking to buy one just incase, any ideas which one I should pick up?
A friend of me told me that it might not be the best idea to try to recover a (my) stolen vehicle and better to get the insurance do that? What's your guys takes on that

Re: GPS theft tracker
Just my opinion, but unless you're getting a significant saving on your insurance they're not worth it. Firstly, it's quite difficult to steal a Scirocco without the keys unless you are a professional car thief and a professional car thief isn't really interested in a Scirocco as there are much better returns for the risk.
In addition the subscription fees can be quite high and if my car is stolen, I don't want it back. My preference would be they write it off hurting themselves in the process.
