Best wheel clamp for SVR?

I've searched on here but didn't see anything. Basically where i live of late has been a huge increase in car crime and, no surprise Range Rovers etc are being targeted - 2 just last night around corner from me!!!

I've got Cat 5 tracker, use steering wheel lock (stoplock pro) and key fobs in faraday pouch (including spares) … oh and a bloody thick iron bar by front door to kick some arse if got hold of someone lol but as another measure in terms of layering security to deter thieves, what wheel clamps fit a SVR? I went into Halfords who kindly let me try the 2 they sell on the car but the width of wheels are too big…

anyone else use them? its only as don't use the car mainly in week…so hence thinking about it. its becoming like the wild west out there, just ridiculous in Essex as I'm sure in all parts of the country now…becoming a Censored hole! rant over Smile

thanks fellas

edited to say: as i just posted this I've got a police helicopter now hovering over my house, couldn't make it up lol MY18 Range Rover Sport SVR (18' - current)

How about one of these or similar on ebay (161906 Car Van Fold Down Parking Locker Space Safety Security Barrier Foldable) only £36.
It should deter them from coming up your drive & go on to easier pickings

Another thought, battery isolator switch, cuts the main feed but still allows all ancillaries to work https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/12V-Battery-Iso...Sw0JFbY1cO

I used to live in Essex, so glad i don't now. What i did have when i was there was bollards in my drive that would slot in a hole in the ground and be locked in, no car would pass them. SVR 2018 in Santorini Black.

You know you can disable keyless entry via a combination of remote presses, so you have to revert back to the old school method of pressing the fob to unlock it? Videos out there online of how to do this.

I’ve got a clutch claw and a stop lock pro. Good luck.

Use an additional immobiliser such as the Ghost for total piece of mind....

A clamp is only as good as the padlock that secures it. Given the villains whip locks off with battery whizzers these days, they don’t offer much protection. There was a guy on Twitter the other day testing ’hardened’ shackles against a diamond cutter disk - they all failed in a matter of seconds.

Most, if not all of the recent Essex lifts have been keyless repeater attacks, so I’m told. Either disable as per above, or use a metal tin, faraday pouch etc, when not in use. MY15.5 HSE
