Cobra Vodafone Automotive Protect and Connect 5 conforms to the highest accreditation for stolen vehicle tracking systems, Category 5 Thatcham approved tracker.

If your insurance company has advised you to fit a CAT 5 tracker then this is the one that they mean. Price includes your CAT 5 car tracker, tracker installation by a Thatcham approved engineer. Add your first-year subscription in the dropdown above to ensure your tracking device is ready to begin protecting your vehicle as soon as it is installed! Same day fitting option- subject to availability. Typically fitted within 72 hours.

ADR (Automatic Driver Recognition)

  • Discreet pocket-sized card carried with you when in your vehicle. Whenever you leave your vehicle the system will automatically arm itself.
  • If the vehicle is moved without the driver fob present, Vodafone Automotive’s Secure Operating Centre is alerted immediately. This means that even if a thief takes your vehicle using your own keys, the theft is still detected with immediate action taken.
  • Supplied with two unique driver cards.
  • The system automatically arms itself 70 seconds after the vehicle ignition has been switched off and the driver card is out of range (approximately 3 metres).
  • The system automatically disarms when the driver card is brought back in range of the vehicle.
  • If your vehicle is driven and the driver card has not been detected, a silent alert will be transmitted to the Vodafone Automotive 24 hour Secure Operating Centre.
  • They will then contact you to check that vehicle theft has not taken place.
  • For added security, if the driver card is not present the system will generate an alert when your vehicle is lifted or towed away without the keys. An alert is also triggered when your vehicle battery is disconnected or discharged

Remote Engine Immobilisation

Enables Police to authorise Vodafone Automotive to send an alert to the vehicle. This stops the engine from being restarted once it comes to a standstill. This feature significantly increases your vehicle’s chance of being recovered undamaged.

Please also note that CAT 5 trackers are soon going to be re-categorised by Thatcham as S5 insurance approved trackers. If your insurance company makes reference to an S5 grade tracker, they are still referring to the CAT 5 model. Any CAT 5 Tracker installed before this renaming is still valid and your service will continue as normal.

Mobile installation applies to UK mainland postcodes.

For any installations away from the mainland please enquire in advance of purchasing to check coverage and availability.
