Tyres to blame? Yeah, it was nothing to do with the inexperienced thief.

How do you know he was inexperienced? He could have been nicking owners cars for YEARS until this happened

Does just posting a DM article cause everyone to grab a pitchfork!?

A 599 worth £250k, eh? I do love the Daily Fail.

A major feature of the Ferrari 430 are its cast-iron alloy disc brakes, which can be swapped for composite ceramic discs. In almost all cases, this offers high-performance braking

What? hello? still can't get my head around what point they are trying to make with that non-sensical statement?

He's 20. Ok, so he may have been a champion go kart racer since 8 but then he'd know the tyres were not right and driven accordingly. My money's on the need to keep my pitchfork firmly in hand.
