How it works
Best for: most family cars and vans, and anyone whose insurer has asked for tracking without specifying S5.
An S7 tracker reports your vehicle's position continuously, and you can see it in an app whenever you like. If the car moves when it should not, you get an alert.
It is the category insurers ask for most often, and on a lot of policies it is enough on its own. Where it differs from S5 is what happens next: with S7, acting on the alert is down to you and the police.
It hides on the vehicle's existing wiring, takes a couple of hours to fit, and we do it on your driveway.
Which cars? Family cars, vans and anything where an insurer has asked for tracking without naming a category.
Warranty: Two years on the unit, with monitoring billed separately.
The detail
The things people ring up to ask before booking — how the app behaves, what the subscription actually costs you, and what paperwork you end up with.
Every tracker here is driven from one app, on iOS and Android. You get live location, thirty days of journey history, geo-fences that tell you when the vehicle leaves an area you have drawn, motion and low-battery alerts, and driver behaviour reporting if you want it.
There are also garage, service and privacy modes. Garage and service modes stop the system treating a legitimate visit to a workshop as a theft. Privacy mode stops journeys being logged at all, which matters if the vehicle is shared or used personally as well as for work.
We set the app up on your phone before we leave, and we would rather spend twenty minutes showing you the alerts than have you find out how they work on the worst night of the year.
A tracker has to stay connected to report anything, and on the monitored systems there are people staffing a control room around the clock. That is what the subscription pays for.
On the Meta Trak systems the first subscription term is included with the installation, so there is nothing further to pay on the day. What you pay is the renewal when that term ends: currently £189.95 a year or £499.95 for three years on the S5 systems, and £119.95 a year or £329.95 for three years on S7. The Shield is self-monitored and cheaper to run at £75.95 a year.
We will remind you before a renewal falls due. If you let it lapse, the hardware stays in the vehicle but stops reporting, and any insurance certificate based on it would no longer stand.
Once the system is installed and registered, you get a certificate in your name confirming the make, model and Thatcham category fitted. That is the document an underwriter asks for, and it is usually what they are waiting on before they will renew or offer cover on a higher-value vehicle.
Send us your insurer's wording before you book. If what they have asked for does not match what you are about to buy, we would rather tell you that up front than issue a certificate that does not satisfy them.
The Shield is the exception: it is self-monitored, carries no Thatcham approval, and no certificate comes with it.
We come to your home or workplace anywhere around Milton Keynes. Allow two to three hours for an S7 and three to four for an S5 with driver tags. You keep the vehicle throughout — there is no need to be without it for a day.
The unit is hidden on the vehicle's existing wiring. Nothing is cut and nothing is left on show, which is the point: a tracker somebody can find is a tracker somebody can remove.
Before we go, the app is on your phone, the tags are paired, the alerts are set to suit where you park, and you have had a proper run through. Afterwards we are on the end of the phone — for a renewal question, a new phone, or moving the unit to your next vehicle.
Monitoring
A tracker needs a live connection to report anything, and that is what the subscription pays for. It is the cost people get caught out by elsewhere, so we quote it separately and in writing before you commit — never rolled into a headline price.

We will remind you before any renewal falls due, and there is no penalty for changing your mind at the end of a term.
What customers say
Had my Mercedes C180 in with Kaine to replace both front suspension springs. I knew that this was not an easy job on this car. Dropped the car off in the morning and it was ready that afternoon. He did an amazing job and I'll be recommending him to friends and family for any work that they need doing. 5 stars!
Had my Audi S3 in for a complete overhaul — Kaine supplied and fitted all the parts, including cam belt, water pump, a full service and a balance shaft delete. He also noticed one of my rear callipers was sticking, so recommended and fitted a new calliper and new rear discs and pads too. A 5 star service — I'll only use Kaine from now on for any mechanical work.
Exceptional experience with Kaine. Came out to me, took my car and fixed it all within two hours. Very impressed and will definitely call him if needed again. Great price.
Fast mobile installation
Send us the registration. We confirm exactly what fits your vehicle and what it costs fitted, before you commit to anything.
We call to arrange a time and place that suits you — at home, or at work while the car sits in the car park.
Your installer arrives fully equipped and works at the vehicle. Most fits take two to four hours, with nothing cut, drilled or left on show.
We set it up with you and stay until you can use it confidently. Your manufacturer warranty is unaffected and it can be removed later without a trace.
The two things that matter, at the price most people can actually justify. Stops the car being taken, and finds it if it is. Fitted in one visit, which is where the saving comes from — the hardware is the same either way.
Works well with
Each of these covers something the others cannot. Fitted in the same visit they cost less than booking them separately — ask and we will price the combination.

Immobilisers
The best-known immobiliser on the market. A disarm sequence on buttons the car already has, with nothing for a thief to find, clone or jam.

Dashcams
Road Angel's flagship. 4K front and Full HD rear on Sony Starvis 2 sensors at both ends — the best night footage in the range by a distance.
Questions
S7 tells you where the car is. S5 does that as well, but also notices when the car moves without your driver tag on you — which is exactly what happens in a theft. If your insurer has asked for S5 specifically, S7 will not satisfy them.
Yes. A tracker needs a live connection to report anything, and that is what the subscription pays for. We quote it separately and in writing so you can see the real total.
The hardware stays in the car but stops reporting, and your insurance certificate would no longer stand. We will always remind you before a renewal is due.
No. It connects to the car's existing network — nothing is cut, drilled or spliced — and it can be removed later with no trace. Manufacturers and insurers expect to see exactly this kind of installation.
Yes. We fit at your home or workplace anywhere around Milton Keynes, so you keep the car and lose nothing more than a couple of hours.
