Insurance Approved Vehicle Trackers in Richmond
What is an insurance approved vehicle tracking device? And why has my insurer asked me to install one?
There has been a sudden heightened demand in installation for insurance approved vehicle trackers in Richmond, Twickenham, and the surrounding areas.

You may have heard about this in the news, due to the spike in vehicle’s being stolen using this method nationwide.

As a vehicle owner, this may be the first time that you have had to adhere to this request.
Therefore, you probably don’t even know where to start looking or how you are supposed to get this arranged.

S5 Car Trackers in Twickenham
The S5 vehicle tracking system is the higher level of Thatcham approved security.
As well as all of the features of the S7 tracking device, the S5 also includes ADR (Automatic Driver Recognition).
Most S5 car trackers involve you carrying a small fob with you to identify you as the authorised driver. If a thief uses relay attack or even steals your key, an instant alert is triggered in the control room as soon as they move your vehicle.
It’s worth considering the new Smartrack S5 D-iD tracking device, as this upgraded system links the ADR to your phone app. This means that you do not need to carry a fob with you for your ADR to work.

GPS Trackers come in all different shapes, sizes and costs. It’s fair to say that insurance approved vehicle trackers are at the higher end of the spectrum when it comes to price. This is largely down to the additional security features that are included with them and also down to the installation, they are all covertly installed and well-hidden to ensure that a thief isn’t able to find it easily when stripping back parts of the vehicle. For an entry level insurance approved tracker you are looking at around £150.00 for the tracker and installation. For trackers with additional security features, such as driver recognition and remote immobilisation you will be looking at around £595.00 Installed.
Installing a tracker is becoming increasingly more common practice for vehicle owners. The reason that insurance companies typically request for a Thatcham approved tracker to be installed, instead of other aftermarket trackers available is due to the impressive recovery rate that Thatcham approved trackers have, with some Thatcham companies such as Tracker UK boasting a 96% recovery rate. All Thatcham approved trackers are installed covertly in different areas of a vehicle keeping thieves on their toes, unlike trackers that are installed at the factory which are all installed in the same position in the vehicle.
There are various factors that determine whether installing a car tracker will lead to a direct reduction in your insurance policy. Typically if your vehicle is valued over around £20,000 then your insurance company are likely to honour a reduction in your policy, however this is subjective to the insurance underwriter. Of course it’s in their own interest to protect their investment when insuring you and with the proven theft recovery rates that Thatcham approved trackers have, you will find that the vast majority insurers will side to offering you the discount and in some cases insisting that they are mandatory for you to be insured for theft. Since the staggering increase in vehicle relay thefts – it isn’t just down to the value of the vehicle, if you have a certain model of vehicle such as a Range Rover, regardless of whether it’s over £20,00 or not insurance companies are stipulating that this is a mandatory requirement to obtain your policy.
