The E92 alarm is thatcham category 1, so I guess all models should be the same?? See attached pic from the BMW site (for E92 model)

Looking at the Full Category Listing, the Q class is classed separately, being a non-categorised tracking category & not part of the standard 5 categories for passenger cars, LCVs & HGVs. Lot of info in the pdf about the categories, though! Viv

You can only tell if it has activated by using specialised BMW equipment.

Carloony, I hope you've been told about the BMW Alarm Recognition System. Here's a shot of ARS headquarters, in Sevenoaks, Kent:  It simply lets the irritating alarm be remotely deactivated- you don't get told that the alarm has been activated in the first place- that's an extra £57.12 subscription, but you need to buy the BMW ARSphone so that they can ring you & tell you. Unsurprisingly, BMW charge £331 for that, without the SIM card. The car comes with a free basic ARS subscription for the first year, but after that they could charge anything upto a hefty £373.91 for ongoing ARSing. I really think you need to read your manual, Carlean-on-me, otherwise your dad may see some hefty payouts, without realising why. All the best. Viv
