Adding Security to vRS Wagon, due 1 September

Featured Replies

Hi folk. I’m trying to be an organised little Herbert making arrangements for my new vRS Estate. Now built and somewhere in Germany, making its way here. Excitement building….it will be a keeper, for the next 7- 10 years.

Extended warranty and Service pack purchased. Dashcam to be dealer fitted before delivery. Been browsing Rear Seat covers from Rhino…not yet ordered.

I’ve booked appointment for full Gyeon Ceramic Coating with a local trusted valet / Detailer.

Are there any reasons why S5 Tracker and Immobilliser aren’t suited to this model? After owning a VW Golf R for seven years I am well versed in car theft risks, security measures and precautions.

I’m sure some will say why bother! But I’m still interested to hear from owners here please.

Your new vRS will already have an immobiliser fitted as standard - is this addition intended as a remote, 'shutdown and detain' unit?

No. A won’t allow it to be started and driven in the first place unit.

An additional layer of security above the standard kit.

Am I going over the top here? Are vRS Wagons a major thief target? Can I dial down my R induced paranoia? - better spend the money on a Disklok and regular pro-valet and detail?

Just interested to get a flavour or all this from owners, thanks.
