If someone would be kind enough to donate Kelly a car, I am willing to donate her one of our Tramigo T22 Car GPS/GSM Tracking Device and 2 years free monitoring with engine Immobilizer so it doesnt happen again, I sell these online www.nztrs.com, and also available from Bay Marine Tauranga,or PB Technologies Ltd Auckland. I started this business because I am sick and tired of opportunists, as Kelly politely calls them, stealing from hardworking people. This was their lifeline, and thieves don't care. Look forward to helping her out with all your help please.
