Government gets David Beckham's stolen X5

The Macedonian Interior minister, Gordana Jankulovska, says she will return Beckham's SUV if it indeed turns out to be his car. But the vehicle in question is yet to be confirmed as the stolen X5. In fact, Beckham’s model is said to be a different color.

Macedonian police seized the vehicle after it was illegally imported from Greece, and according to Jankulovska, “if no owner claims the property, the car can be auctioned or kept for state use.” The car did indeed become property of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia after it was found that it had been illegally imported into the country and no owner had claimed it.

Why would he want it? He got a loaded Q7 when it got stolen.

Because the X5 was a car that was supposed to protect his family because the car was bulletproof etc.

Ah, I believe I did hear that. Interesting.

They should buy a new bulletproof car- the article does say it's probably not the same color as his X5, and he can obviously afford it. Armored S-Class?

He can afford any armored car he wants.
