"Relay attacks" on Bentleys?

Here in Sweden there are always prestigious cars stolen during the night, and generally always shipped east to the Baltic countries. They seem to drive around in neighborhoods and have some sort of tracker to be able to capture the FOB-signal from the keys inside a house, and then they're able to reproduce that signal to open and start the car at a later time.

In my neck of the woods there are mainly unique Porsches, Audis and Rams that are stolen this way. How safe are Bentleys when it comes to the FOBs and being able to be stolen by such a procedure?

I always keep my keys in metal boxes just to be sure, but no one wants to steal my 2007 Bentley GT. heh

Interesting read attached. Might explain how they steal encrypted cars.
