What steering wheel lock would you recommend?
I have a Lexus NX 450+ with a tracker fitted.
There was a theft of a Land Rover Discovery in our area. The vehicle had a tracker on and was stolen without the keys being taken. Before the tracker traced the car, the thieves had taken out the tracker mechanism and the vehicle could not be traced.
I would like to have an additional level of protection on my Lexus. I would appreciate if you would suggest a steering wheel lock for the Lexus NX which would be the best deterrent against a car theft.
Have you any alternative advice or suggestions?

If you want a steering lock for your car that is effective as a deterrent as well as making the car very difficult to steal, we would suggest the Disklok. It's not cheap, but is very effective.
Other things you can consider to add extra protection are a Faraday pouch for your keys - or even just putting your keys in a metal tin when you are at home - or adding a security post if your car is parked on a driveway at home. Add these elements together and it will make your car much less appealing as a target to potential thieves.
