I don't think there are any *legal* methods of tracking your grand daughter's cell phone. There are probably a number of ways you could track your own car, using your own cellular device.
First, Susendeep Dutta's linked article explains how to track a phone with the Android operating system on it. Basically, you either buy a phone with Android and GPS (most phones have it by default), follow the directions and then track the phone.
Second, if you have placed the phone in your car, you should then be able to track your own car, provided it doesn't lose its GPS signal or optionally its WiFi or 3G signal.

Yes... buy the maps of MAP MY INDIA. I think it costs upto 2500 INR. Highways and state highways are not accurate in this map. But cities are okey....

If you are looking at the apps which needed location service, it may not need the GPS connection. But I doubt the GPS feature is possible without the GPS connection.
Thanks.

Actually the question which I had posted was " How to use Gps (in Android 2.3) without Gprs connection? " but second half of the question was published as "Gps connection" instead of Gprs connection"

google maps do not have offline feature,
search for an app that allows you to save maps and use them offline in nokia nokia maps allows it so there must be some app in android too give a search
