Remove the engine, gearbox and rear diff?
Alternatively, you could put supermarket fuel in it, crank the boost up and sit on the limiter until it immobilises itself!

Seriously though, have you though about removing the HT leads or disconnecting the crank sensor?
If it won't start they can't take it.............unless they have a transporter.

When you say you want to immobilise it Alcazar, are you talking from a "good for the car", or from a security standpoint?
If the former, disconnecting the battery would be advisable, but if the latter, it obviously wouldn't be, especially from an insurance point of view.
