Polestar 4 Performance Pack Insurance Approved Tracker
Professional Retrofits Ltd supplies and installs Thatcham-approved GPS tracking, including the Polestar 4 Performance Pack insurance approved tracker option where required by your insurer. Fitted at our workshop in Nuneaton, this service is designed to meet common UK insurance expectations while keeping the vehicle’s finish and functionality in mind.
Because vehicle security works best in layers, insurance-approved GPS tracking can add an extra line of support if your insurer requests it. Additionally, a Thatcham-recognised system typically connects to a Secure Control Centre, which can assist with location visibility and recovery processes if a vehicle is reported missing. Depending on the tracker category and insurer requirements, systems may also support driver recognition, and some solutions offer optional immobilisation that is insurance-approved and controlled in line with police/Secure Control Centre procedures where applicable.

As a result, you get a tracker setup that supports insurer compliance and day-to-day usability without unnecessary add-ons.

Important: GPS tracking supports stolen vehicle location and recovery coordination, however it does not prevent theft on its own. Always follow your insurer’s security requirements and keep your vehicle security measures up to date.
What’s included with our GPS tracker installation
Our service covers supply, fitting, and setup support for an insurer-recognised GPS tracking system suited to your policy requirements. We also help you understand what the system does day to day, so you can use it with confidence.
- Thatcham-approved tracker supply: We provide an S5 or S7 category tracker where applicable, based on insurer requirements and vehicle suitability.
- Secure Control Centre connection: The tracker links to a monitoring centre designed to support stolen vehicle tracking and recovery coordination once the correct reporting steps are followed.
- Driver recognition (where required): For S5 systems, driver recognition is typically part of the requirement, which can help validate authorised use.
- Optional immobilisation (only where appropriate): Some insurance-approved systems support immobilisation features that are controlled in line with Secure Control Centre/police processes where applicable; we will confirm suitability before installation.
- Handover and guidance: We explain app/portal access (where available), subscription information, and the typical insurer evidence you may need.
Thatcham categories and insurance guidance (S5 vs S7)
Insurers commonly specify a Thatcham category rather than a particular brand. Therefore, the key is to match the tracker type to what your policy asks for, then ensure the subscription and monitoring are active.
- Thatcham S7: An insurance-recognised tracking category designed to support vehicle location and recovery via a Secure Control Centre. It is often used when an insurer wants monitored tracking without driver recognition.
- Thatcham S5: Builds on monitored tracking and usually includes driver recognition. Consequently, many insurers request S5 for higher-value or higher-risk vehicles, or where the policy specifically states “S5”.
Insurance note: Requirements vary by insurer, policy, and sometimes by driver profile. Always check your policy wording or ask your insurer what category they require before booking, because fitting the wrong category may not meet the condition of cover.
Tracking, reporting, and recovery support
If your vehicle already has a compliant tracker, we can advise on whether it can be linked to monitoring or updated to meet insurer expectations. Alternatively, we can install a new hard-wired Thatcham-approved tracker and support the setup so the Secure Control Centre pathway is in place. For additional background on monitored tracker options and coverage, you can also visit Vehicle Trackers Coventry.
However, it’s important to be clear about outcomes: GPS tracking is designed to support visibility and recovery coordination after a vehicle is reported missing, but it cannot stop a theft from happening by itself.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a GPS tracker for insurance?
Some UK insurers include a tracker condition for certain vehicles or policy types, while others do not. Therefore, you should check your schedule or policy wording, because it often specifies a Thatcham category such as S5 or S7 rather than a brand.
Which tracker is suitable for a Polestar 4 Performance Pack?
Suitability depends on your insurer’s requirement and whether they ask for S5 (typically with driver recognition) or S7. Additionally, the tracker must connect to a Secure Control Centre with an active subscription to meet most insurance conditions.
What is the difference between Thatcham S5 and S7?
S7 generally focuses on monitored tracking via a Secure Control Centre, while S5 typically adds driver recognition. As a result, many insurers request S5 for higher-value vehicles or where the policy explicitly states S5.
Does a GPS tracker stop my vehicle being stolen?
No. A tracker is designed to support location visibility and recovery coordination after a vehicle is reported missing, however it does not prevent theft on its own.
Can you fit a tracker if I already have one installed?
In many cases, yes. We can advise whether an existing system can be linked to monitoring or whether an upgrade is needed to meet insurer expectations, because not all trackers are Thatcham-approved or connected to a Secure Control Centre.
Will the tracker affect my vehicle warranty or electronics?
We install with care and aim to integrate the system neatly, however warranty positions vary by manufacturer and policy. Therefore, if you have concerns, check your warranty terms and let us know any insurer or lease requirements before booking.
Do you provide mobile fitting?
Customers bring their vehicle to our workshop. This allows us to complete consistent checks and handover in a controlled environment.
What do I need to provide for the appointment?
Bring your insurer’s tracker requirement (policy wording or email) if you have it, because it helps confirm the correct Thatcham category. Additionally, you may need to set up or confirm subscription details during handover.
Note: Any immobilisation function is only available on certain insurance-approved systems and is subject to Secure Control Centre and police procedures where applicable. Availability varies by product and insurer requirements.
