Vehicle Replacement Insurance

Did everyone get the vehicle replacement insurance? I noticedthat Porsche's tracker was £1100 and the VRI is half that. I was told that the VRI will pay up to £20,000 on top of the market value of your car to replace it with a hew one if written off or stolen. If you work out that a new Cayman is approx £50,000 (avg) OTR and residuals should be around 60% at 3 years, then the VRI will replace your car if stolen in the first 3 years. Why would you worry about a tracker? Am I missing something. Is there more to it? If anyone knows more I would be very interested.

I'm with you on this, to be honest I'm not a fan of trackers - well not trackers as such more the concept. If my car is stolen I really don't want it back... Don't want it back after some spotty youth has flown around Liverpool in it at whatever speeds and not treating it with the love and care it deserves. If he does that and gets caught, I get the car back and in a couple of weeks something drops off or breaks or the motor blows who is paying for it - warranty? Insurance? or Me? And I certainly don't want it back with repaired bodywork or mechanical's unless they are done very very well.

I'm with Admiral and no tracker required with them so when my car arrives in June (fingers crossed for May) I won't be asking for a tracker to be installed.

Also the tracker system didn't help my mates Scooby STI when it was nicked at Birmingham airport, it was never activated yet when he returned from Mexico it was nowhere to be seen.
