I've just bought a car and need to know if it has a tracker fitted already before i buy a new system. Its a 2004 X5, where would i look to see if it did, as there are no obvious signs and there was no paperwork with the car. Bought it through auction too, so no seller to go back to. The X5 forums are shit and just thought i'd try here!
ta if anyone can help

Or maybe he's selling drugs out of it so he needs the tracker removed so going to the police and asking them would be a bad move.

Rumbled! Nah i'm just trying to save the wasted money of buying another! Direct Line won't insure it against theft unless it has one so am a tad keen to find out asap!

call tracker themselves and give them the details
doubt they will tell you tho as you could have stolen it and asking them if it has one before ripping it out and shipping it overseas?
lol
