As above, I attach it pointing downwards, with the wheel turned a quarter turn to the right. I have tried driving it 1 or 2 metres (when I have got out and seen I have parked crooked) and find it virt ...

That's an interesting one. we had a no fault claim on insurance on our other car (driver uninsured) and it didn't seem to affect the renewal premium.

Possible then that maybe the UWB key wasn’t broken and they have another way in. Always an arms race sadly, ultimately though over time I believe technology will win out. Maybe it won’t be impossi ...

Out of interest did you call the Police?!

Update - took the car into Guy Salmon for an assessment and for safe keeping in the interim. If the co-axial telematics cable has been cut, it is a 2-3 month wait and £7 to £9k for a new wiring harn ...
