Former AFL star Jimmy Bartel has had the wheels removed from his car, in what appears to be a growing trend of stealing parts from vehicles in the bayside suburbs.

The ‘Wide World of Sports’ host returned home from his break to find the wheels to his Mercedes had been removed, with the story appearing on the Rumour File last Thursday.

“This is a disgrace,” 3AW Drive host Jacqui Felgate said.

Press PLAY to hear Jimmy Bartel speak on the theft 

Thieves are reportedly being paid thousands of dollars for car parts, which are often used for vehicle re-birthing.

“I’m like a parent, I’m not mad just disappointed,” Bartel said on 3AW Drive.
