Vehicle Security Worthing — Ghost Immobilisers, Trackers & Thatcham Approved Installations
Car theft in the UK is still rising. Relay attacks, key cloning, OBD port hacks — modern thieves don’t need your keys anymore. If you’ve spent money on a decent car, or you care what happens to it, proper security isn’t optional.
At Juicy Car Care, we fit professional vehicle security systems across Worthing and West Sussex. Ghost immobilisers, Thatcham approved GPS trackers, alarm upgrades — all installed by a local specialist who knows the area, knows the vehicles, and treats your car like his own. No call centres, no van turning up from 200 miles away. Just proper work, done right, on your doorstep.
Vehicle Security Services We Offer
Autowatch Ghost 2 Immobiliser — Worthing & West Sussex
The Ghost 2 is widely regarded as the best aftermarket immobiliser available. Unlike a standard immobiliser, it works through your car’s CAN bus — the existing wiring — so there’s nothing external to find, no additional key fob to steal, and no way to bypass it with a relay device or OBD port hack.
You set a unique PIN sequence using your car’s own buttons (steering wheel, door panels, dash controls). No PIN, the car won’t start. Full stop.
Completely hidden — no additional hardware visible inside or outside the vehicle
Protects against key cloning, relay attacks, and push-to-start bypass
TASSA verified — accepted by most insurers, often reduces your premium
Works on virtually all makes and models
Typical installation: 2–3 hours
The Ghost 2 is particularly popular with high-value cars, prestige vehicles, and anything on the keyless entry relay attack hit list — Land Rovers, BMWs, Mercedes, Audis, and performance cars of all kinds.
Thatcham Approved GPS Trackers
A Ghost stops the theft. A tracker helps get your car back if the worst does happen. Most insurers insist on a Thatcham approved tracker for high-value vehicles, and for good reason — they work.
We supply and fit Thatcham Category S5 and S7 GPS trackers, which include:
• 24/7 monitoring via a dedicated control room
• Real-time GPS location tracking
• Driver ID/recognition systems (Cat S7)
• Immediate stolen vehicle alerts
• Insurance-approved certification
Many of our customers combine a Ghost immobiliser with a Cat S7 tracker for full belt-and-braces protection — the Ghost stops the car being started, and the tracker ensures recovery even if it gets on a low-loader.
Alarm System Upgrades — Thatcham Cat 1
If your car has no factory alarm, or a basic one you don’t trust, we can fit a Thatcham Category 1 alarm system — the highest-rated category for aftermarket car alarms. Cat 1 systems include both an alarm and an immobiliser function, and are accepted by insurers for premium discounts.
These are a particularly good option for older vehicles, classics, or vans that came without proper factory protection.
Combined Security & Protection Packages
This is something no pure security specialist offers: get your vehicle security fitted on the same day as a ceramic coating or PPF application. One booking, one visit, your car leaves properly protected — both against theft and against paint damage.
For customers with a prestige or performance vehicle, this makes obvious sense. You’re not booking two separate specialists, paying two lots of call-out, or leaving your car with strangers twice. It all happens here, in Worthing, with one team.
Why Choose Juicy Car Care for Vehicle Security in Worthing?
We’re local. Based in Worthing, covering West Sussex — Shoreham, Littlehampton, Chichester, Bognor Regis, Horsham, Brighton. Not a company based in Manchester offering to “come to you” from 200 miles away. We’re here.

Fully trained and insured. All our security installations are carried out by a TASSA certified installer. Every job is tested and verified before we hand the car back.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will a Ghost immobiliser affect my manufacturer’s warranty?
No. The Ghost 2 works through the CAN bus without cutting into any wiring — it’s entirely non-invasive. It won’t affect your manufacturer warranty or any existing warranties on the vehicle.
Is the Ghost immobiliser Thatcham approved?
The Autowatch Ghost is not Thatcham approved, but it is TASSA verified — a scheme specifically designed for CAN bus immobilisers. Most insurers recognise and accept TASSA certification, and some will offer a premium reduction. We recommend checking with your insurer before booking.
Do I need a tracker as well as an immobiliser?
They do different jobs. An immobiliser (like the Ghost) prevents the car being driven away. A tracker helps police locate and recover your vehicle if it does get stolen — for example, on a flatbed. If your car is high-value or a common target, both together is the sensible choice.
Can I get a Ghost immobiliser fitted at my home or workplace in West Sussex?
Yes. We can come to you across Worthing and the surrounding West Sussex area. Just message or call to discuss a location.
How long does installation take?
A Ghost immobiliser typically takes 2–3 hours. A tracker installation is usually 1–2 hours. Combined installations can be arranged to run alongside other work so you’re not waiting unnecessarily.
What happens if I forget my PIN?
Before we hand your car back, we register the system and set up an emergency override code as a backup. We also walk you through the PIN entry process so you’re confident using it. There’s a full reset process available via Autowatch if needed.
Will this actually reduce my insurance premium?
Frequently, yes. A TASSA-verified Ghost installation and/or a Thatcham approved tracker are both recognised by major insurers. Some customers see meaningful reductions. It’s worth calling your insurer and asking directly — many will confirm the discount before you book.
