Maybe you have already heard that the bullet-proven BMW X5 of Mr. David Beckham has been stolen while he was sitting in a restaurant in Madrid some days ago.

This incident turned out to be a lucky event for him, because the Audi guys (who are a sponsor of his soccer team Real Madrid) took their chance and offered him an Audi Q7 which he thankfully took.

lol thats gr8..all madrid players get audis.. i think the ROnaldo was the only one with a A8--

rich getting even richer...lucky guy...

I'm sure he doesn't car about the loss of his X5, probably never drives the SUV, Victoria would drive that car!

I have heard that everytime he or his family go somewhere there are also two SUVs with bodyguards that escort him.

That must cost a lot, but I'm sure today with terrorism, there are a lot of people who wouldn't mind killing him, because there would be a lot of media attention, and he is part of the Western world!

It's not the fear of terrorism, it's more the fear of abduction from criminals that frightens him.

BECKHAM GETS FREE CAR WITH £20,000 OF EXTRAS

DAVID Beckham was handed a £70,000 car for free yesterday - days after hi-tech thieves stole his armour-plated BMW.

Beckham, 30, landed a posh Audi Q7 4x4 with £20,000 worth of extras - then took it for a spin on a race track.

Real Madrid's 23 star players each get an Audi every year as part of the club's sponsorship deal with the car manufacturer.

The England skipper opted for a 4.2FSI in phantom black with pearl-effect paintwork, black leather interior, car phone, flat screen television, Bose stereo, satellite navigation and a keyless entry and starting system.

Beckham then tested the 154mph motor on a specially built dirt-course in Madrid, driving French star Zinedine Zidane, 33, and Italian striker Antonio Cassano, 23, round the track - under the watchful eye of an instructor.

A Real Madrid source said: "It is a specially constructed track near our training ground, with ramps and plenty of steep descents to make it challenging.

"David insisted having a go at the wheel. Zidane and Cassano looked a bit nervous at first but David is a great driver and was 100 per cent in control the whole time."

Beckham's estimated fortune is £87million and earns £100,000 a week with the Spanish giants.

But he was loaned the Audi Q7 for the year for free - on condition he drives it every day to training.

An Audi source said: "Beckham asked for just about every extra possible on the car, bumping the price up by £20,000." L On Monday, it was reported that a gang of car thieves stole Beckham's £70,000 armoured BMW X5 while he was eating lunch with his sons.

The gang used hi-tech software to start the car's engine electronically in a car park.
