Alarm detection and driver authorisation together

Pandora UK identifies Elite V3 as a Thatcham Category 1 alarm and immobiliser. This combines the alarm’s detection role with immobilisation, rather than relying on tracking alone. See the official Pandora Elite V3 product information.

Bluetooth driver recognition adds a separate authorisation layer alongside supported factory-key operation. It is designed to help protect against modern theft attempts involving unauthorised key use, including cloned or relayed keys.

If your insurer requires additional security, confirm the exact system and installation requirements before ordering. Thatcham certification does not automatically guarantee insurer recognition, a discount or a separate tracking certification. No security system eliminates every theft risk.

A dedicated remote with a useful second role

The Pandora Elite V3 includes a long-range OLED pager remote, giving you a dedicated way to receive supported status information and operate your system. The remote can also serve as an immobiliser identification tag when configured for that role.

• OLED display for clear status information.
• Two-way pager communication where within operating range.
• Supported remote operation alongside app access.
• Bluetooth driver recognition with the appropriate remote or tag.

You can choose the supported operating routine that suits your day. We explain how your pager, driver tags and factory key interact during handover. Radio range varies with buildings, interference and surroundings; we do not promise a fixed distance in every location.

Useful information beyond the parking space

Access supported functions through Pandora’s compatible iOS or Android application. The Pandora Elite V3 combines nearby Bluetooth communication with remote GSM connectivity, giving you access beyond Bluetooth range where mobile coverage and service availability permit.

• Supported vehicle-location and tracking information.
• App-based security controls and status checks.
• Phone calls, text messages and push notifications for configured events.
• Nearby Bluetooth app access without relying on a mobile-network connection for that local link.

GPS reception, network coverage, phone settings and an active airtime service affect connected functions and notification delivery. We confirm the applicable airtime offer and renewal terms before fitting. Do not assume that connected tracking includes a staffed recovery service or S5/S7 tracking approval.

Suspect a theft? Contact the police and follow the relevant provider guidance. Your system is a security aid, not a reason to confront someone or attempt recovery yourself.

Extra resilience for your security setup

The package includes a battery-backup siren with its own reserve power. This supports the siren’s operation if the normal power supply is interrupted, subject to its condition and the installed configuration. We demonstrate the agreed alarm functions during handover.

Add separate wireless immobilisation points

The Pandora Elite V3 can support additional hidden Bluetooth immobiliser modules alongside the installed immobilisation arrangement. These optional modules communicate wirelessly rather than needing a direct control wire back to the main alarm unit, allowing additional vehicle-specific integration choices.

Additional wireless Bluetooth immobilisers are not included automatically. Their suitability, number and fitting cost depend on the vehicle and agreed specification. Ask for a quotation before booking; we assess appropriate installation points rather than promising any circuit can be controlled on every vehicle.

Configured for your car and your routine

UTL Performance supplies and professionally installs the Pandora Elite V3, with vehicle-specific configuration, functional checks and a demonstration. We review the vehicle’s electronics and existing security before confirming the installation scope.

1. Send your vehicle details: registration, make, model and year.
2. Tell us about existing equipment: alarms, trackers, immobilisers and relevant modifications.
3. Agree the specification: standard equipment, optional modules and airtime terms.
4. Arrange fitting: book a suitable workshop appointment.
5. Learn your system: receive a demonstration of the pager, tags and app.

Contact UTL Performance for an Elite V3 compatibility check. Workshop fitting is by appointment in Birmingham; installation time depends on the vehicle and agreed equipment.

Remote start or Anti-HiJack functions, if requested, require separate assessment. They are not automatically included or represented as being covered by the stated Thatcham approval. We confirm suitability and any extra cost before proceeding.

Add recorded evidence to connected security

Pair your alarm with a professionally fitted front and rear dash cam for recorded driving footage. Alarm notifications and camera recordings serve different purposes, making them useful complementary upgrades.

Already own a camera? Ask about customer-supplied dash cam hardwire fitting. Parking recording depends on the camera, power setup and configuration.

For a more tailored package, request an Elite V3 upgrade quotation covering compatible wireless immobilisers and other supported accessories. Optional hardware, additional labour and any separate subscriptions are confirmed before installation.
