It only made the new on VD because Massimo died and the owner prolly mailed VD about it.

VD prolly contacted the police for a statement/comment hence why it is a standard response.

Blame VD for making this "news" and not the police.

The sad thing is that the thieving little bastards probably don't even realise just what it actually is.

Because you always leave your rare £45k bike in a car park...

"
A financier today said he was heartbroken at the theft of his rare £50,000 superbike from a multi-storey car park in a “Gone in 60 Seconds”-style heist.



Biking enthusiast Luigi La Ferla, 55, an investment manager at Marble Arch-based World Trade Capital Partners, was one of only 300 people in the world to own an MV Agusta 750 F4 Oro."

Just goes to show; they are as careless with their own assets as they are with their client's.

Ah, my heart bleeds. I wonder how many real people's pensions were plundered so that scumbag could have his toy.

Shame about the bike. Having a bike stolen is always a horrible feeling.

Had a plaque with his name on, would have thought that suggested it was a bike for him. Either way, horrible feeling to have a bike stolen.

£45k insured value, maybe.

More realistically, £25k.

So, we're talking less than a decently specced Mondeo, or a fairly low spec sprinter van.

Original purchase price probably around that of an ok specced 3 series BMW?

As far as bikes go, quite expensive. As far as 'vehicles' go, really not that much money when you consider what others are using on the roads daily.

To be honest it looks like one of BCF's toddlers have painted it.

It's not particularly powerful. It's just a name. There's better mass produced stuff and better modded stuff out there and with 200 miles on the clock there still loads of shit to go wrong. I'd give em a grand for it because parts are gonna be expensive too

From LB forum, it appears it was stolen from an NCP car park of all places. Stolen just after it had been serviced too. Hmmmmm..

£225 per mile.
