She was seen on the nightly news by her mother Adrienne, 47, who immediately called the police.
Westminster magistrates' court heard that police had to abandon their BMW in the 'frenzied' attack.
Ives, described by her lawyer as a 'talented sportswoman', is alleged to have boasted later that she had had 'the best day ever', magistrates heard.
She denied two counts of burglary, violent disorder and attacking a police car.
Ives was refused bail until August 17 when she will appear at Highbury Corner magistrates' court.
