Testimonials

"I have had the Valkyrie Sentinel covert tracker fitted to my Aston Martin DB5 for just over a year now and it provides total peace of mind. My tracker reports into me daily, detailing pin-point location accuracy, anywhere in the world. The Valkyrie team get in touch if any suspicious movement occurs and are available 24/7 for assistance. I chose the Valkyrie Sentinel tracker over its competitors due to the impressive military and intelligence backgrounds of the team, most especially the resources they have available should my car ever be stolen and they need to recover it."
