Stefan Eriksson's famous exotic car collection keeps shrinking. First, the former European videogame executive's rare Enzo Ferrari was destroyed in a mysterious crash Feb. 21 on Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu. Then, on Sunday, he lost his 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, valued at more than $400,000. Beverly Hills police confiscated the vehicle after Scotland Yard said the car might have been stolen. The officers stopped Eriksson's wife, Nicole Persson, 33, about 2:30 p.m. on the corner of Beverly Drive and Wilshire Boulevard because an officer found the car's European license plate suspicious.
The officer then discovered that Persson lacked a driver's license and that the car was not registered in the United States. "We contacted Scotland Yard and subsequently learned that the car was perhaps stolen" out of the United Kingdom, Lt. Mitch McCann said.
The entire incident was caught on tape by a 13-year-old exotic car buff who has filmed Eriksson's vehicles in the past.
Beverly Hills authorities said they didn't have details of the British police case.
But Los Angeles County Sheriff's Sgt. Phil Brooks said that an unidentified financial institution says it owns the Mercedes and that a financial institution in Scotland says it was the owner of the Enzo.
This leaves Eriksson with only one of the three exotic cars he imported to the United States late last year, Brooks said
