Protect your 4x4 the smart way: invisible, CAN-integrated, and impossible to hot-wire. Modern vehicle theft has evolved, and traditional immobilisers aren’t enough anymore. Enter Nemesis 2, designed specifically for modern 4x4s to give you ultimate security without compromising convenience.

Why Nemesis 2 Matters for 4x4 Owners

Thieves now use key cloning, diagnostic tools, and CAN-bus attacks to defeat ordinary alarms. The Nemesis 2 integrates invisibly with your vehicle’s CAN-bus and requires a custom PIN sequence via your existing buttons before the engine will start. Even with the original key, a thief cannot drive your vehicle away without the PIN.

How Nemesis 2 Works

  • CAN-bus Integration: Controls engine start signals without visible wiring or relay switches, making it extremely hard to detect or bypass.
  • PIN-based Security: Customised PIN sequences are entered using existing buttons like indicators or steering-wheel controls. No PIN, no start.
  • Invisible Protection: The system is undetectable to casual inspection and most diagnostic tools.
  • Automatic Re-Arming: Protects your vehicle continuously without additional steps.

Who Should Consider Nemesis 2?

It’s perfect for:

  • Owners of modern Land Rovers, Range Rovers, Discoverys, and other CAN-bus 4x4s.
  • Drivers who keep expensive kit in their vehicles or park in high-risk areas.
  • Fleet operators looking for invisible, reliable engine immobilisation across multiple vehicles.

Benefits for 4x4 Owners

  • Reduced Theft Risk: Prevents drive-away theft even if keys are stolen or cloned.
  • No Visible Add-Ons: Keeps your vehicle looking standard while fully protected.
  • Low Daily Friction: Easy-to-use controls and automatic re-arming.
  • Insurance Advantages: Some insurers recognise fitted immobilisers, potentially reducing premiums.

Installation & Expectations

  • Professional Fit Recommended: Requires expertise with CAN-bus systems to ensure reliability and invisibility. See our installation services for certified installers.
  • PIN Programming: Set up a secure PIN sequence using familiar buttons.
  • Warranty Considerations: Ensure installer is approved to maintain warranty and insurance coverage.
