Theft sees F1 boss with no wheels

Bernie Ecclestone's car was left stranded
Formula One boss Bernie Ecclestone may have difficulty getting anywhere in a hurry after the wheels of his Mercedes were stolen at his London home.
The 74-year-old millionaire, who recently lost control of F1 racing to a group of banks, said the wheels were taken at around 0445 on Saturday.
He said the thieves were captured on film but he was not planning to report the matter to the police.
The wheels of another Mercedes he owned were stolen in 2003.
My Paper (telegraph) has Bernie quoted as saying we will deal with it ourselves :lol: So looks like Bernies henchman will be hunting down the thieving bastards LMAO!
Also he said he couldn't remember the last time he saw a policeman in his area, which is probably true for most!

I am pretty fucking sure Dan is joking. He must have read about those wheels in the paper and decided to pull a little joke on us.
The 74-year-old millionaire
I'd be pretty pissed at that statement if i was him :roll:
He's worked his arse off for years, earning a fortune over £1 BILLION. Freakin' news is so innacurate.... as they are with the cost of the car etc.. :|

I hate inadequate journalism. The MSN car site had a picture of Jay Kay leaning on a Miura and the caption was: "Jay Kay with Ferrari"
:roll:
Damn, im just imagining myself waking up in the morning calmly walking to my car, when sudenly... WTF? Where the hell are my wheels :shock:
