Yep. That car had been reported as stolen in the UK, then turned up in the US, driven by the same guy. Apparently.

What an idiot the guy is though
Shipping both cars to the US to avoid getting them repossed, not registering them in the US, and then his wife got caught driving the SLR with no driving license
That was just the start of it too
