Hello,
Whats the best car alarm i can pickup cheaply? It doesnt need to have central locking and all that tosh, i just want one with door sensor recognition, and maybe an internal shock sensor, but not external as i dont want it going off in the wind!
Ive been pondering about this

Anyone bought one? / reccomend one for under £50
Cheers

Its £20!
If you think the security of your car is worth £20 then go for it!

at least get something decent, tried and tested and proven to repel wankers.

I agree, paying peanuts for an alarm is pointless. May aswell not have one.
Get a decent alarm and stop being tight

it's very good mate, i have mine on the highest sensitivity at the moment as people kept stealing stuff off my car/keying it. if i leave my car in the road and a car goes passed, the alarm will go off.
if people go within a metre of my car on my driveway, it makes a ''beeping'' noise to warn away, then the alarm will go off after 3 warning beeps.
it must do some good, nothing's been taken off my car since i got it fitted
for £170 you can't go wrong mate. it's worth it just so you can have a good nights sleep.
