Three people have been arrested after high-value keyless vehicles were stolen.
Officers arrested a man and a woman in their 30s from Melksham, Wiltshire, and a man in his 30s from Bath, Somerset, on suspicion of theft of a motor vehicle.
In recent weeks, Wiltshire Police said they have received an "increased number" of reports of vehicles being stolen from driveways.
The arrested trio have all been bailed while enquires continue, police said.
The force has advised the public to take preventative measures, to avoid opportunistic crimes, by making sure their cars are locked and keys are stored in Faraday pouches.
