Pandora Alarm

Anyone have one ?

I had one on my M240i convertible and it was great .... ADR tag to disarm the immobiliser and alarm.

I had a Pandora Mini BT with anti hijack.

Now I am moving to an X3 M40i wondered if anyone had one or an Autowatch Ghost ?

I was thinking of getting an Autowatch Ghost 2 but have been put off by the dealer saying that it could invalidate warranty. Plus I believe there is another thread on this forum that highlighted some initial issues...

I'm aware the AWG and the issues .... a number of car alarm people told me to steer clear but then they don't fit them (well, one did!)

Warranty issues will always be there ... not like a remap though. The M240i I am trading the dealer actually liked the fact it had an aftermarket alarm.

GAP and a steering lock for me initially ...

Me too! I just don't need any warranty issues on a brand new heavily spec'd car.

May I ask what issue are there with the Ghost alarm system?

Looking at the Pandora alarm? But how inconvenient is the tag system
