Hi guys/girls
I have around £500 to spend on an alarm for my car - what do you guys recommend?
I would need this fitting aswell included in the price - preferably an insurance approved alarm..not a big deal if not (remote engine start would be cool  but not essential)
ive been given a price for a Falcon Predator GSM Alarm - £499 fitted by a shop near me...any good?

got toad ai606 in mine with microwave and shock sensors. Its on max sensitivity and you can set the alarm off just by touching the wing mirror or walking past it. Very good alarm for very cheaper than other alarms. I paid 175 for it.

got the viper 480x on my corsa,
has numerous aux channels for diffrent add ons (remote start, turbo timer,door/boot pop etc)
its a cat 1 system, comes with lcd display on remote so you know what it is thats trigger alarm etc and the status of your car, sure it has a range off 1000 meteres aswell
i got it on a very good deal from my local i.c.e dealer, here is a link to his website with the alarm, - http://www.evolutionice.com/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=94
