Luxury supercar dealer Tom Hartley was forced to drive home from a luxury health spa in a robe and flip flops after thieves stole his clothes.
Hartley – who specialises in selling supercars costing millions of pounds – reported the theft in a video posted on his social media channels yesterday afternoon.
The Used Car Awards Lifetime Achievement Award winner said he returned to his locked to find his clothes – which included a Hermes belt, jeans, £850 Zegna trainers and other items – had been stolen from his locker.
Hartley does not name the ‘well known health farm’ in his video but says the thieves ‘even took my underpants’ that had ‘TH’ logos on them.
‘I’m going home in a robe and some borrowed sandals,’ said Hartley, in the video posted on X/Twitter and Instagram yesterday afternoon.
‘Went for a spa day with my wife, went to the locker – definitely put my clothes in the locker and my valuables and when I went back there I had no clothes.’
