    Interesting topic, been trying to find good advice also, I pick up our brand new MH in two weeks with a Phantom Sentinel fitted (my choice) though not cheap, nor is my MH, seems to be in top spec, I am no expert, so happy to let others advise.

    Once it is stolen, I want a code  on my mobile phone that instantly fries the vehicle computer and stops it DEAD....wherever it is........On a motorway in the outside lane doing 70+, or being driven onto a travellers site.

    The basic problem with the request is that most people who have one never find out how effective it is and do not have experience of the various models. As a result comparing them is not easy.

    Working in insurance I do know that Tracker was the favoured system although none are foolproof. One that lets you know when the vehicle is moved is clearly the best and it needs to be able to track the movement after theft.

    Tracker certainly worked when three caravans were stolen from Preston Caravans with all three recovered before they left the city.
