Looking for serious vehicle security in Ipswich? Ipswich City Mechanical is an authorised dealer and installer of the Ghost II immobiliser, protecting modern vehicles from key cloning and high-tech theft.
Protect Your Vehicle From High-Tech Theft With the Ghost II Immobiliser
Vehicle theft is evolving. Thieves no longer rely on forced entry. They use relay attacks, key cloning and electronic bypass tools. Standard factory security no longer keeps your vehicle safe.
The Ghost II Immobiliser is built for this new threat. It locks your engine through the vehicle’s CAN-bus system and requires a secret PIN sequence using your factory buttons before the engine will start. No key fobs. No flashing lights. No visible device to find.
We are an authorised dealer and installer of the Ghost II Immobiliser at Ipswich City Mechanical. We fit these systems to late-model vehicles including 200 & 300 Series LandCruisers, Ranger, Hilux, BT-50 and other CAN-bus equipped vehicles.

Why Ghost II Works
The system protects against:

No radio signals are used. No external keypads or fobs are added (unless this is an option you'd like to have). The system is invisible to thieves and undetectable via standard diagnostic tools.
