BMW GPS tracker

Anyone got one of these? They are about £300 from the dealers. Are they the same as devices that can be bought from ebay for £100.

Pretty sure it's BikeTrac. Usually it's £300 for the unit, £100 to fit, £99 for the first year's subscription.

I cant see a link in your post but any tracker without a tracking service [ergo monthly/yearly fee i.e. Biketrac] ,would seem a waste of money to me

Hi, yes it'll be Biketrac, I had one of the first units from 2010 fitted to various cars & bikes, I just bought 2 more for my new bikes & subscriptions are £99 per year, I can say it's a valuable service as I've been in Europe for 2 weeks, I came back on the channel tunnel a couple of days ago & forgot to disarm the tracker, movement detected even though I was in the carriage of the train, I lost phone signal so they went frantic trying to get hold of me, text messages, email & voicemail..
they ask you security questions to make sure your not under duress & if you answer wrong I'm sure the next call would be to the police..

Insurance approved if fitted by dealer, also I was speaking to a Met cop at the Bike Shed show in London & he said the only bikes they're getting back are the ones fitted with trackers..

Pleased with mine. Really like ability to view routes you have taken(and speeds). Only had one alert and that was when dealer moved bike whilst servicing. Reassuring!

Pidcocks in Notts are fitting them for £350 with a new bike, but apparently there is an authorised dealer in Derby area Supply & Fit for less than £300..

Got mine included price along with 1st year subs with rr; made a big difference to insurance premium.
