My gti is from southern Ireland how do you know if I had a thatcham alarm where do I check for insurance purposes

give your local vw dealer a call and see if they can help, thats where i would try 1st, they should be able to point you in the right direction if they havent got the info you want readily available

Does it have an interior ultrasonic sensor?

Have a look at this post http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,37316.0.html

IMO if you don't have ultrasonic sensors in the car then it didn't come with a factory alarm.

if you have a scan of the car look at address 46 and see if it gives the part numbers of the alarm horn, interior monitoring and inclination sensor. If they are not there then no alarm

It has a red led flash on door card

I would approach your vw dealer pointing out this discrepency and ask them to rectify it in the first instance.
