Whichever you choose (most Thatcham certified systems will be fine) the most important thing is the installation quality
A poor installation will ensure that even the best system will at best give you grief, and at worst compromise the security of your car!

Whereabouts in Devon are you? I got mine fitted by Mobile Radio in Exeter a few years ago, and was very pleased by the service and attitude, never had any problems since.

I've had a Toad Ai600 in the past, was a very good alarm - like above has said its all down to the installation and the bloke on his horse who fitted mine should have a gun cos he fooking robbed me!

Check this https://passionford.com/forum/viewto...726&highlight= spoke to zvhturbo over the weeknd as he was having a Clifford fitted by www.ukcaralarms.co.uk and he seemed VERY PLEASED with the quality of the installation, i'm sure he'll post his final opinion on Monday.
