Moment £250k Ferrari is stolen in just seconds as gang on mopeds easily bypass its security – then race into the night
THIS is the moment a £250,000 Ferrari was stolen in just seconds – with a gang on mopeds easily bypassing its security before racing into the night.
Thieves broke into the Ferrari 812 as it sat parked on a quiet street in central London.
Shocking footage posted on Twitter showed the supercar’s lights and alarm going off as one gang member crouched by its open door.
A moped driver kept watch as the man got to work on the car’s top-end security system.
Another clip showed the Ferrari’s engine roaring into life – before the thief reverses straight into another parked car.
Two moped drivers followed the stolen supercar as it raced off into the night.
Supercar dealer Tom Blackmore said: “The magnificent 812 SuperFast I sold a few months back has sadly fallen foul to the growing list of stolen Ferraris from central London.
“The car had two trackers installed, both bypassed or blocked.”
Ferrari 812s have in recent years sold for between £220,000 and £300,000.
Tom added that the car was not fitted with Ghost, a system which immobilises a motor if it is hacked or stolen.
He said: “Ghost can be bypassed or removed exceptionally easily also.
“Physical deterrents are the best method at present.
“I personally wouldn’t want my car back had it been stolen.”
The Met Police has been contacted for comment.
It comes after yobs torched vans and cars in an overnight rampage – with Royal Mail vans among the vehicles targeted.
