Does GLS 450d comes with a Thatcham Approved tracking device?

[Praise24]

Does anyone know if a GLS 450d comes with a Thatcham Approved tracking device? Or do I need to buy one? Some insurance company requires this as mandatory and it need to be an approved thatcham device. If I need to buy any advice on where to purchase please? Thanks for your help .

Does any car come with a tracking device as standard? They may be dealer fitted options but if so probably rare.

.As for where to buy, do Thatcham provide a list of approved installers?

Unless it is shown on the Thatcham website I'd say no. Insurers really only recognise Thatcham approved systems

No.

But. Check your insurer's wording. Some want a traditional tracker - others just need real time tracking of some sort.

MB's own Guard 360 digital extra and stolen vehicle recovery assist may be sufficient for some insurers who are less specific about a tracker.

So as an example - here's a link to LV's website that looks like common sense.

What trackers are suitable and do I need one for my car?

Thank you for your response. The NFU mutual insurance insist it must be a Thatcham approved tracker. Has anyone used this insurance company before?
