hmmmmmmmmm well it really depends how good the alarm is, but from the functions it sounds pretty good!, but its a cheap option if you cant afford a prefessionally fitted CAT 1-2 alarm for now!!
somthing like that from clifford would set you back a good £500!!
but you need to have some good knowledge with electrics and your car to fit yourself!
bascially i reckon for £69, your getting what your paying for! so it may not be that good!!
it says "THE MANUAL SAYS FOR AUTOMATIC CARS THIS IS THERE ONLY TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT IT CAN BE USED ON BOTH AUTOMATIC AND MANUAL AS THE MOST POPULAR TYPE IS MANUAL IN THE U.K"
im sure remote starts and these type of two-way alarms are ONLY designed for automatic cars?? as i wanted the clifford version of this alarm a while ago but it said specifically on website its for automatics only

nah they can be used in manual vehicles but just pray you never leave the car in gear 
Also to use remote start on those you need to have the old style vauxhall key without a chip or you will have to buy an override module.
Anyway there is a better manufacturer of the same spec alarm:

never seen the alarm. but you can use them on newer cars. even manual. you will need to remove the chip from a key and tape to the ignision to work.

you can take the chip ou tof the key and hot glue it to the ignition barrel,
problem sorted,
makes it a little easyer to steal though but it saves the cost of a module

I looks like a cheep shitty version of the avital system lol...
pay the money and get some one to fit it for you @ lest that way your insurance company will aprove it...
A system like that should cost 600 pounds including fitting by a specalist, 70 pounds for an alarm you might as well put a sign up your car saying pleas take Key inside car...
and about the Auto start no they can be used for Manuals but the company take no libility if you kill some one by auto starting as Manuals jump foward if in gear and if you press auto start the car will jump foward and stop and the auto start will kick in again and again till the car has started so it can crush some one infront of the car...
if you get it from TOAD you have to sign a disclamer saying you understand that and its your liability

or if you have a propper start system like cliffords intellistart, i cant be started in gear
as you have to stop the car when your out of it,
hence the car cant be running if your outside as it cant be in gear
