BMW X5, BMW 3 Series and the BMW 5 Series

This is a rather depressing development for BMW owners. However the good news is that Trackershop install the best Thatcham approved car trackers for BMW in the UK. But which BMW tracker is right for you? Read on to learn more.WHY CAR TRACKERS FOR BMW?
 |
In the UK car theft numbers have doubled in 5 years. There are several reasons for this, with fewer police now on duty, the odds of being caught in the act favours the thieves. One of the biggest reasons for the increasingly escalating number of stolen cars is that car theft gangs have developed incredibly quick, covert and highly effective techniques - using remote technology to ‘hack’ the vehicles locking and ignition mechanisms. Techniques like relay theft and key cloning have now become the standard method for organised criminal gangs. This allows them to target high value and popular vehicles and drive them away quickly without making any noise. No disruption or damage. They can just open the car door and start it up like it was their own vehicle, in just seconds! This is why car trackers for BMW models have become vital security against theft. |
S5 CAR TRACKERS FOR BMW?
Why the S5 car tracker for BMW?The S5 tracker is fully fitted with extended battery back-up and has a 24/7 real-time tracking monitoring service in place. If an alert is raised or a theft is reported, the control room staff raise a level one police response and work directly with the police in the area, guiding them in to where the vehicle is with pinpoint accuracy. A private recovery team is also deployed to the location. This is incredibly effective, with Trackershop S5 tracker installation still on a 100% recovery rate for any thefts. |
The other main feature of the S5 Tracker is the ADR System.ADR (Automatic Driver Recognition) is a promimity sensor that recognises you as an authorised driver of the vehicle. You are provided with a small fob to carry with you when driving the vehicle. Therefore, if anyone ever steals or clones your keys to steal your vehicle an instant alert is triggered immediately in the control room. This is due to the fact that, even though they may have your keys, they will not have the seperate fob with them. This is an incredibly proactive, quick and effective way of instantly knowing if someone tried to take your car. The S5 is supplied with two of the ADR fobs as standard, and you can purchase more if ever needed. |

S7 TRACKERS FOR BMW
|
With most BMW models (especially the 3 mentioned at the top of the page) insurers are mainly insisting on S5 trackers.
However they can be frustratingly vague in their terminology, so if they have not specified any particular category then they are giving you freedom to choose whichever you prefer.
In these circumstances most motorists will opt for an S7 tracker…simply because it is the cheapest!
|
Don’t be fooled though. Installing an S7 tracker for BMW is incredibly effective security, with the majority of the same features as the S5.
The only main difference is that the S7 tracker does not have the ADR system as standard.
However, with global coverage, tamper alerts and the 24/7 control room the S7 tracker is an absolute game changer in catching thieves within minutes of stealing a car.
