Mercedes Trackers

The rise in car theft across the UK is a growing concern, especially for owners of luxury vehicles like Mercedes-Benz. Understanding the specific risks is the first step towards better protection. Here's why your Mercedes might be at risk:

• Sharp Increase in Vehicle Thefts: The UK has seen a significant surge in vehicle thefts over the past few years. Due to their high resale value and advanced technology, Mercedes-Benz models have become particularly vulnerable and are frequently targeted by organised criminals.
• Targeting of Keyless Entry Systems: A hallmark of modern Mercedes vehicles is their convenient keyless entry system. Unfortunately, thieves have become adept at exploiting this technology. Using methods like relay attacks, criminals can unlock and start your car without the physical key, making this one of the most common forms of theft.
• Luxury Vehicles as Prime Targets: Mercedes cars, especially popular models like the C-Class and E-Class, are highly sought-after. They are often targeted due to their desirability in both domestic and international black markets, as well as the high demand for their parts.

Protecting your Mercedes-Benz requires a multi-layered approach. At Trackershop, we offer a curated selection of advanced security products designed to counter modern theft methods. Below are some of our most effective solutions for safeguarding your vehicle.

1. Autowatch Ghost II Immobiliser

The Autowatch Ghost II provides robust, invisible protection against sophisticated theft techniques like key cloning and relay attacks. It is a next-generation immobiliser that integrates seamlessly with your vehicle's existing systems.

• No Visible Indicators: Unlike traditional immobilisers that use key fobs or LED lights, the Ghost II is completely hidden. This makes it invisible to thieves and almost impossible for them to bypass.
• Personalised PIN Code: You secure your vehicle with a unique PIN code entered via existing buttons on your steering wheel or dashboard. The engine will not start until this sequence is correctly entered, even if a thief has your key.

2. ScorpionTrack S5 Plus: Advanced Tracking and Immobilisation

The ScorpionTrack S5 Plus is an insurance-approved system designed for high-value vehicles like Mercedes-Benz. It combines real-time tracking with proactive immobilisation features to keep your car safe.

• Real-Time Location Tracking: The system offers precise GPS tracking, allowing you to monitor your vehicle’s location at any time through a dedicated mobile app and web portal.
• Automatic Immobilisation: The S5 Plus features driver recognition tags. If the vehicle is moved without a tag present, an alert is sent to the 24/7 monitoring centre. If a theft is confirmed, the system allows for remote immobilisation by the police.
• Comprehensive European Coverage: This tracker ensures your Mercedes is protected with full monitoring services whether you are at home or travelling across Europe.

3. Thatcham Category S5 and S7 Trackers

For robust and insurance-approved tracking, Thatcham Category S5 and S7 trackers offer excellent, cost-effective protection. These systems are recognised by all major UK insurers.

• 24/7 Monitoring Centre: Both S5 and S7 trackers are linked to a secure control centre that operates 24/7. If your vehicle is moved without authorisation, the centre is alerted and will contact you to confirm the vehicle's status.
• Driver Recognition (S5 Only): Category S5 trackers include driver recognition tags as a standard feature. If the vehicle is started and the tag is not present, an alert is automatically triggered, providing an additional layer of security against key theft.

4. High-Definition Dashcams

Dashcams are an essential component of modern vehicle security. They act as a deterrent and provide crucial video evidence if an incident occurs, whether you are driving or parked.

• Crystal-Clear Recording: Our recommended dashcams record in full HD or 4K, capturing every detail of your journeys and any suspicious activity around your vehicle with exceptional clarity.
• Intelligent Parking Surveillance: With parking mode enabled, the dashcam uses motion and impact sensors to monitor your vehicle while it is parked. If an incident is detected, it will automatically save the footage, helping to identify anyone who damages or attempts to break into your car.
