RANGE ROVER TRACKERS

Among the most loved car brands, Range Rover happens to be one of those at the top of the list, and it isn’t something which can be afforded by everyone. If you have been ill-fated to get your Range Rover stolen, you can get your hands on one of our Trackstar trackers approved by Range Rover itself, and stay a step ahead of the thieves.

This will ensure that you are aware of your vehicle’s location at all times, given its advanced motion sensor detection technology that sends you an alert as soon as it detects a movement of your vehicle. Furthermore, the chances of recovering the vehicle if it gets stolen also increase, which can be done within as little as a few minutes!

Your range rover gets 24/7 monitoring, and this peace of mind is given by a secure stolen vehicle tracking centre. These vehicle trackers are both Jaguar Land Rover and insurance approved, and also endorsed by the police! Thus, you may also be able to reduce your insurance premiums when an insurance approved tracker is installed in your vehicle.

To add value to your purchase further, each tracker’s price has the covert fitting cost of the device included, that too by an approved engineer. Installation can be done anywhere, at your home or when you’re at work.  You need to have a subscription (which can be bought with the device) for your vehicle to be tracked. If you plan on changing your vehicle, the tracker can also be switched to the new car easily.

Features of Range Rover Trackers:

Let’s look at some of the main features that will reassure you of the fact that there are significant reasons why you need to install a Trackstar tracker in your Range Rover:

  1. As a standard, the tracking coverage is European-wide.
  2. In case the thieves disconnect the device’s battery, an internal battery backup is there that keeps your vehicle protected. Once activated, the tracker sends your car’s position frequently. So, it doesn’t matter where your car was stolen from or taken to, as it can be recovered by the authorities very easily, thanks to the constant updates from the tracker.
  3. These trackers are suitable for any make and model, so you don’t have to take a risk with your Range Rover Evoque, Sport or Velar. Just get one of these trackers and enjoy the benefits of the latest vehicle tracking technology!

Why Do I Need A Range Rover Tracker?

Range Rover is one vehicle that makes crime gangs scour the driveways and streets. But why is it sought after more than any other 4×4 vehicle, when there are so many of them available in the market? This is because from a financial perspective it is considered as one of the most popular and best luxury 4×4 vehicles present on the market.

Thus, it makes them good from a reselling perspective as they resell at a high price while depreciating at a much slower rate and holding their value for many years, compared to other 4x4s. On the other hand, their parts and spares are also very expensive in the black market, which means that some vehicles may be stripped down within just a few days of getting stolen and will spread across various locations.

Car thieves who target more luxury cars are usually the ones better experienced in their job. Amongst the most common techniques they use is so simple that it’s quite worrying and almost anyone can easily execute it using just some equipment purchased online.

What is Relay Theft?

This is a technique that targets vehicles featuring keyless entry and is usually done at night on driveways. One of the thieves stands having a transmitter, close to the vehicle, while the other stands near your house another transmitter that picks up the signals from your key fob.

Then, the signal is relayed to the transmitter by the car, thus unlocking the car door, in just a few minutes. A new code for a generic fob is then created using a plug-in onboard diagnostics kit, which they carry with them. Once this is also done, they can then easily drive your vehicle away!

The scariest part of all is the fact that all of this can be done as fast as within a single minute, while the vehicle owner stays unaware of their ill fate, for several hours. Now one can understand how this quick, simple and covert technique became so popular amongst the car thieves.

How A Range Rover Tracker Will Protect Your Vehicle From Relay Theft?

The relay theft technique we just discussed, makes it even more important for you to have a vehicle tracker in your Range Rover. Thieves today have become much more sophisticated and relying on just a factory-fitted security device isn’t enough for the safety of your vehicle in the present day.

If a thief is targeting your vehicle, there’s a solid chance that eventually they will take it successfully. A Thatcham approved Range Rover tracker limits the probability of theft and improves the chances of recovery substantially. Reduced insurance premiums for the car is another benefit of fitting the device to your vehicle, as it may bring you substantial savings in the long term.

Which is the best Range Rover tracker?

Thatcham Approved Tracker For Range Rover:

The highest level of security is provided by a Thatcham approved tracker, for any vehicle. Insurance companies are referring to Thatcham categorised tracking devices when they request for a GPS tracker installation on your vehicle.

All these trackers are under 24/7 surveillance from a fully staffed control centre. Sometimes, the category S7 tracker is acceptable. However, given the increase in the theft rate of Range Rovers and their value, it is insisted by most insurance companies to use the Thatcham category S5 tracker which is the higher of the two.

S5 Trackers For Range Rover:

The highest level of security is provided by a Thatcham category S5 Range Rover tracker which offers a full service in both recovery and prevention of theft.

1) Free of Cost Installation by a Professional

Our Thatcham certified engineers visit any location and install your GPS tracker.

2) Automatic Driver Recognition (ADR)

One of the encrypted key fobs must be carried with the driver when using the car. If the fob isn’t present, the control centre receives an alert about it and will contact you to confirm if it’s you using the car or if there’s a theft.

3) Tamper/Tow Away Alerts

If your vehicle is moved without the ignition turned on, or an attempt is made to tamper with the tracking system, the control centre receives an alert about this as well, creating an instant response.

4) Free App

Your Range Rover tracker’s position can be monitored directly from your phone as well, using the free app.

S7 Trackers for Range Rover:

The most cost-effective Range Rover Tracker is the S7.  Although it doesn’t offer all of the features of the S5 system, it still provides excellent security for the vehicle and a whole host of driver convenience features.

Prominent Features:

  • 24/7 monitoring
  • Transferable to other vehicles
  • Motion sensing
  • Pan-European Cover as a standard
  • Range Rover approved

If there are no specifications made by your car insurance provider about the type of tracking device you should install, you may opt for the S7 tracker. It will tick almost all the boxes, from providing effective and excellent vehicle security to a hassle-free experience, all at a great price.

Most of the S7 tracker features are the same as the S5, with the exception of the ADR system.

FAQs

When can you fit my tracker?
We will contact you within 24 hours of receiving your order (Mon-Fri) to arrange a fitting appointment and we aim to have your tracker installed within 2-5 working days. This may be longer during busy periods or if you live in a hard to reach location. Please note: we cannot confirm a fitting date until we receive your confirmed order. We always try our best to accommodate your requirements. In the unlikely event we are unable to carry out your install within a reasonable timeframe, you’re welcome to a full refund.
What’s the difference between an S5 and S7 tracker?
S5 is the highest Thatcham category and features ADR (Automatic Driver Recognition). The authorised driver is required to carry a tag, card or smartphone (with an encrypted app installed) to identify the driver. S7 trackers are the lower category of the two and don’t have this feature. An S5 tracker will alert you in more theft scenarios than an S7 tracker would. Driver recognition aside, S5 and S7 systems otherwise have the same basic features, such as 24/7 control room monitoring, internal backup battery and protection against the vehicle being towed or lifted away. All of our S5 and S7 trackers (with exception of the Tracker Monitor and Tracker Retrieve) also come with a dedicated smartphone app, which allows you to see the vehicle’s location among many other useful features.
What is an S5+ Tracker?
Unlike categories S5 and S7, S5+ is NOT a Thatcham category. It’s a name used in the trade for a S5 tracker which also has the addition of remote immobilisation. Remote immobilisation allows the staff at the 24/7 control centre to immobilise the vehicle in a theft situation. Immobilisation is not part of the Thatcham criteria so it’s unlikely to be an insurance requirement, but it’s a useful tool in the fight against vehicle theft. Some of our S5+ trackers allow the customer to remotely immobilise the vehicle from a smartphone app. Other S5+ systems include “no tag, no start” technology, preventing the vehicle from being driven if the ADR (automatic driver recognition) tag is not within the proximity of the vehicle.
Who are Thatcham?
Thatcham are the only “not for profit” insurer funded research centre in the UK and have been at the forefront of vehicle security since the 90s. Thatcham created the S5 and S7 certification for vehicle tracking systems, which verifies the functionality, design and performance of the products. Thatcham are NOT a brand of tracker, they are more like a governing body.
Which tracker should I choose?
Please see our helpful "Tracker Selector" tool to help you choose. If you’re still unsure, feel free to call us, drop us an email or use the chat feature on our homepage.
Do I need to pay a subscription fee?
All of our trackers require you to pay a subscription fee. Depending on which tracker you choose, your subscription fee is either collected by us at checkout, or paid directly to the tracking manufacturer after installation. The tracker will not operate without a subscription (think of it like buying a mobile phone without a contract). Your subscription fee covers things like the 24/7/365 staffed control-room monitoring (if your product is insurance approved), data charges to allow the tracker to communicate on the GSM network, ongoing technical support and the administration of your tracking account.
Will I get an insurance certificate?
If you’ve purchased an insurance-approved product, yes. Once your installation has been completed and your subscription fee has been paid, you will be issued with a certificate of installation which you can give to your insurer. Depending on your product, the certificate can either be accessed straight away via your online portal or it will be emailed to you by the tracking manufacturer within 48 hours.
Can you install the tracker at my address?
Yes, we come to you. We provide a fully mobile service and will visit your home or work address at a time convenient to you.
Can you install the tracker at the dealership before I collect the vehicle?
Yes, we regularly visit car and motorhome dealerships throughout the UK to install our tracking products. All you need to do is get the dealership’s permission and let them know when to expect us.
How long does the installation take?
The installation process usually takes 1-2 hours.
Does your free installation service cover the whole of the UK?
Our free installation service covers 99% of the UK mainland. However, we may not be able to cover some remote locations (such as parts of the Scottish highlands). Installation lead times may vary depending on your location too. If you live in a remote/rural location, feel free to contact us before placing your order.
Will fitting a tracker void my warranty?
To date, we have had zero instances of a customer’s warranty being affected after one of our installations. We use only Thatcham approved installation procedures and connection methods. However, due to the complex variations in manufacturer’s warranties, it is your responsibility to check that having a specific product installed to your vehicle does not affect your vehicle’s warranty agreement.
What does tracker fitting involve?
The tracker will be covertly installed in a hidden location within the vehicle. Our Thatcham approved engineer will decide on the most suitable location within your particular vehicle. The tracker will usually be connected to the vehicle electrical system using industry standard connection methods and all wiring will be concealed. The tracker will then be fully tested and activated by the engineer.
Will the tracker drain my battery?
The current drain on our trackers when the vehicle is parked is minimal (milliamps). This level of current drain is negligible and will not affect the vehicle’s electronics or your ability to start the engine.
What happens if my vehicle is stolen?
Depending on your tracker model and the theft method used, you may receive a phone call or alert from the trained staff at the 24/7 control centre within a few seconds of your car being stolen. In some other scenarios you would report the vehicle stolen using the number provided to you in your welcome pack. Once the vehicle is confirmed to be stolen, expert staff liaise with police to recover the vehicle.
Could the thieves not just rip the tracker out?
Our trackers are covertly installed by our expert engineers and have around a 96% recovery rate (according to one of our brand partners). It’s not impossible for a thief to find a tracker, but it’s quite rare.
Do I need immobilisation with my tracker? How does it work?
Since 2019, immobilisation is no longer part of the Thatcham criteria when it comes to trackers. So it’s likely that you don’t need a tracking system with immobilisation to meet your insurance requirements. However if you want extra peace of mind, you may wish to consider immobilisation. With our S5 trackers with immobilisation (sometimes referred to as S5+ trackers), the vehicle can be immobilised remotely by the staff at the 24/7/365 control centre in the event of a theft. Some of our systems also allow the customer to remotely immobilise the vehicle from a smartphone app. Other systems include “no tag, no start” technology, preventing the vehicle from being started if the ADR (automatic driver recognition) tag is not within the proximity of the vehicle. We don’t install immobilisation to hybrid or electric vehicles.
Will my tracker work abroad?
All of our S5 and S7 trackers provide European coverage as standard and often global coverage. If you need more information on exactly which countries your chosen tracker operates in, we recommend contacting the tracker manufacturer directly for confirmation.
Do your trackers work on electric and hybrid vehicles?
Our full range of S5 and S7 tracking systems are compatible with with electric and hybrid vehicles, with the exception of our trackers which feature the immobilisation feature (S5+). We don’t install immobilisation to hybrid or electric vehicles.
Can I transfer my tracker when I buy a new vehicle?
All of our trackers, with exception of the “Tracker” brand, can be transferred between vehicles. This is a chargeable service and you can contact us for a quote.
