Re: Have they combined Remote and Secure Tracker?

I must confess I was unaware (or neglected to read it thoroughly!) I have recently renewed and paid £260. During the next renewal, I will have my partner handle it. If it is taken, I can hold her accountable. Additionally, she may use the remaining funds towards yet another handbag.

Mercedes, Ford, Volkswagen, and Rolls Royce all possess CIS, allowing for the p...
