If the lock can't survive the same brute force attack that the enclosure can, then it's the weak point. And the picture I saw looked like it would 1. be pickable, 2. fail with brute force.

But. There are plenty of less expensive boxes similar in design available elsewhere that can be bolted to the car, with or without locks. Something like this is what I'd consider a good candidate for mail-order anyway - not between countries.

How abot something portable and locakble? Using my previous suggestion of a pelican hard case. If you're currently using a pelican case for portability you can also use it fixed to the car's trunk. By installing a few bolts in the bottom of the car, each with a hole through it, perpendicular to its length. Put these UP through the bottom of your car. Weld them there or secure them with a low profile nut on the inside. Make sure there's enough length coming into the car to go through your pelican case. Put a few holes in the case to line up with the bolts. When you don't want to carry the case with you, put it in the trunk so the bolts go through it and into it. On the inside you put a coiuple of pins through the holes in the bolts. Now your empeg. Close it up and lock it with a pad lock. Done. It's fixed to the car until you unlock the whole thing and open it up again.

The drawback to the "unmodified" pelican is that you'll always have these holes in it... So you can forget about it being submersible.
