About the Dacia Sandero
The Sandero is the no-nonsense champion of European car sales - genuinely affordable, tough and cheap to run, and a UK best-seller. Its simple, roomy cabin makes a hidden tracker installation straightforward.
Where to mount a tracking phone in the Sandero
- Boot under-floor tray - compact but ideal.
- Under the front passenger seat - flat and hidden.
- Glovebox - easy charging.
- Power - USB or 12 V.
- Signal - avoid pressing against metal.
Private by design - no manufacturer cloud, no foreign servers
Modern cars are permanently connected: the maker's own app knows where your car is and routes that data through its cloud. Our approach is the opposite. Tracking runs entirely on a phone you own, and your location history lives in your own SpySat account. We do not pass it to the car maker and we do not send it to any foreign data centre.
