Stolen vehicle recovery company Tracker helped police retrieve almost 80 high-value cars in September, according to its first monthly bulletin.
Tracker said its location systems successfully located 79 vehicles last month, with a total cost of £1.6m. The single highest value vehicle was a £165,000 Aston Martin.
Eleven arrests resulted from the recoveries.
The statistics are for recoveries made using Tracker's Retrieve and Monitor systems, but not its latest global positioning system model – Horizon.
Dennis Lavers, Tracker insurance liaison manager, said he expeced Horizon to substantially boost its record on recoveries because it had the capability to detect if a vehicle was concealed in a garage or a cargo container.
Tracker said its system had to date led to the recovery of 675 vehicles with a total value of £83.7m and resulted in 1,202 arrests.
Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
