BMW M2 Protected with a SmarTrack S5 Tracker & Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser

The all-new BMW M2 is one of the most exciting performance cars on the road today. With its aggressive styling, impressive power and everyday usability, it's no surprise that the M2 has become a favourite amongst enthusiasts. Unfortunately, its popularity also makes it an attractive target for organised vehicle thieves.

Recently, our team at Tracking My Car installed a SmarTrack S5 insurance-approved tracker alongside an Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser on a brand-new BMW M2, giving the owner complete peace of mind from day one.

Why Is the BMW M2 at Risk?

Modern performance cars are no longer just stolen with traditional methods. Criminals now use sophisticated techniques including:

• Relay attacks
• Key cloning
• CAN bus attacks
• Key programming devices
• Vehicle theft to order

The BMW M2's desirability means it can be stolen and transported out of the country within hours if left unprotected.

SmarTrack S5 – Insurance Approved Protection

The SmarTrack S5 is one of the UK's leading Thatcham-recognised vehicle tracking systems.

Benefits include:

• 24/7 monitoring by a secure control centre
• GPS tracking should the vehicle be stolen
• Driver Recognition (ADR) technology
• Immediate theft alerts
• High vehicle recovery rates
• Meets many insurance requirements for high-value vehicles

If the vehicle moves without the authorised driver present, the monitoring centre is alerted immediately and can begin the recovery process.

Autowatch Ghost – Stop Thieves Before They Drive Away

While a tracker helps recover a stolen vehicle, an Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser is designed to stop the theft from happening in the first place.

Unlike traditional immobilisers, the Ghost has:

• No key fobs to clone
• No visible wiring
• No LED indicators
• No radio frequency signals
• No subscription fees

The driver simply enters a unique PIN sequence using the vehicle's existing buttons before driving away. Without the correct PIN, the engine cannot be started—even if thieves have the keys.

This makes the Ghost one of the most effective defences against modern theft techniques.

Why We Recommend Both Together

For high-performance vehicles like the BMW M2, we always recommend combining a Ghost Immobiliser with a SmarTrack S5 Tracker.

Together they provide two layers of protection:

Autowatch Ghost

• Prevents the vehicle from being stolen.

SmarTrack S5

• Helps locate and recover the vehicle if thieves somehow manage to take it.

This combination offers one of the highest levels of vehicle security currently available.
