WHAT IS A THATCHAM APPROVED TRACKER?

Your tracking device is installed covertly by thatcham approved fitters, using the latest fitting techniques that will deter and prevent theft. In the event of a theft: Your insurance tracker’s motion sensor detects illegal movement (e.g. if the vehicle moves when the ignition is switched off), and sends an alert to the 24 hour control centre. They will then contact you to confirm the unauthorised use. You can also alert the control centre directly yourself. Once theft is confirmed recovery of your vehicle will be actioned immediately.

Why do I need a Car Tracker?

Car thieves have modified their methods to overcome modern factory-fitted security. As a result of techniques such as ‘relay attack’, thieves can now easily steal cars in seconds and a concerning number of these stolen vehicles are never recovered. Using any of our carefully selected range of car trackers can help to instantly recover your vehicle in the event of a theft.


What Car Tracker is best for me?

Choose from insurance approved, magnetic or hardwired car tracker devices. Each type of vehicle tracker will provide their own unique features and benefits.


How do Car Trackers Work?

Whatever the purpose, you can monitor your car tracking devices in real-time through your computer, laptop and smart phone. You can view any previous tracking history, including times, exact locations and speed, as well as set up motion alerts any time. You have full access to your own private mapping panel and tracking app allowing you to monitor and co-ordinate your car trackers from anywhere!

What is the cheapest Car Tracker Device?

When it comes to the cheapest car tracker devices in the UK in 2022, there are a few different ways to define what to be looking for in a cheap car tracker in 2022.

GPS car tracking device capabilities have come on in leaps and bounds in recent years,

However, this is not to mean that there are not still pitfalls and dips in quality at the lower end of the price range.

Like any item, the really cheap car tracker options do not tend to translate to quality.

If you are protecting important vehicles, assets or even loved ones, then it can be false economy hoping that you can rely on a cheaper option.

Therefore, Trackershop strive to provide the most cost-effective car trackers in the UK.

For insurance approved trackers, the ScorpionTrack S7 is great value, with monthly subscriptions starting at £11.50

For a personal use cheap car tracker, the Micro Magnetic is a really useful cost effective tracking device - at just £75 and £9.99 per month.

These products have the balance of quality, reliability and high levels of features, at an affordable price.

My Insurance Provider used the term 'Vehicle Tracker System'

Yes, the term vehicle tracker system is a common term used by insurers. If you are in need of an insurance approved vehicle tracker system then you can select the 'insurance approved' tag above to see the suitable products for this. 


I have been told specifically to get a 'Vehicle Tracking System'

It's very possible that your insurance provider used the term 'vehicle tracking system' when organising your insurance. 

Whether they reference vehicle tracking system or any similar terminology, the most important aspect is that you install the correct Thatcham accredited category (eg S7 or S5).

Vehicle tracking system (or VTS) is a common term used in the insurance industry, but they will be referring to any of the insurance approved trackers in this category.

How much does a car tracker cost in 2022?

'How much does a car tracker cost?' is of course one of the first questions anyone may have when considering purchasing. Depending on the type that you need, a car tracker can cost anything from £39 when purchasing through Trackershop.
