What is a Thatcham Immobiliser?

A Thatcham Immobiliser is a Thatcham Approved Category 2 device. It will prevent your vehicle from being easily stolen. They are required by UK car Insurance policies to be insured against theft.

Please call us, giving details of your car make, model and date of manufacture. Here we can advise you on the best product for you, your vehicle and car Insurance requirements. Phone number at the bottom of the page.

Time taken to install these systems vary, so please expect to leave the vehicle with us for a full morning or afternoon. We have a dedicated waiting area, or customers can find many shops within walking distance. See our contact us page.

How do Vehicle Immobilisers Work?

Vehicle Immobilisers work by stopping the car from starting easily. They do this by the driver either entering a code, or by carrying a unique tag. Systems are fitted for extra security for cars and vans or Insurance compliance.

It is expected by all insurance companies in the UK that vehicles have at least a Cat 2 immobiliser fitted. New vehicles, produced for the UK market, usually have this fitted at the time of manufacture. However with the advent of smart keys and key cloning technologies the manufacturer's products may be no longer effective. Although technically these manufacturer’s devices are a full Thatcham Category 2 system and Insurance compliant, an extra system is usually suitable as an upgrade.  

Insurance Car Immobiliser

We provide insurance car immobilisers for Insurance purposes. Firstly we have the Viper 106v immobiliser where a touch key is placed against a receptacle in the car. We also provide the Sterling Excel Category 2 immobiliser system, which is a no touch transponder device suitable for some older cars.

The Pandora Storm is now a Thatcham Approved 'Category 2: Electronic Immobiliser' ideal for modern cars and vans.

In most cases the choice of immobiliser is dictated by the vehicle. Please enquire for more details.

Non-Insurance Vehicle Immobilisers

We also provide the Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser specifically designed for CANBus and keyless entry vehicles. It relies on drivers using buttons already in the vehicle to deactivate the immobiliser, and can be used with a small tag as an alternative. Autowatch Ghost car security is not Thatcham Approved but may be accepted by Insurance companies under the TASSA Registered Installer scheme.
