Stolen Vehicle Tracking
Thatcham S5 & S7 Trackers
Vehicle Security Tracking has evolved greatly over the years and has become a big part of keeping your vehicle or asset protected while parked on your drive at home or keeping your business growing out on the road.
Insurance approved vehicle tracker systems fall into two categories, these are S7 or S5 Vehicle Tracker. If your insurance company has asked you to fit a S5 or S5+ vehicle tracker there will be little point negotiating for the much cheaper S7. S5 and S5+ trackers are often an insurance requirement for high value, high performance, new cars. In these cases it is usually impossible to get insurance without an S5 or S5+ system installed and monitored.
