This YouTuber Had His Lotus Elise Stolen At Gunpoint In Paris
Having a car stolen is one of a petrolhead’s biggest fears, and the terror of having your ride taken at gunpoint isn’t something we’d even want to contemplate. Sadly that’s what’s happened to Seb Delanney, a 19-year-old YouTuber from Monaco well known for collaborations with the likes of Shmee150 and Seen Through Glass.
Speaking about the incident on Snapchat this morning, Delanney said “last night my car was stolen. Myself and my friend Josh were held at gunpoint and had to run with a guy pointing a gun at us through Paris.”
Fortunately, Seb’s Elise Cup Racer is particularly distinctive thanks to a matte black finish with red accents, which greatly helps the chance of it being spotted. Make sure you keep an eye out!
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

Yup that’s Paris for you xD
Send in the car spotters
UPDATE: CAR WAS SEEN

Sarcelles… If it ends up there we won’t see it ever again
Waits for Disklok comment
Not our style, feel sorry for the guy and hope he has some good luck finding it!
Wow….. in paris of all places! They wont get far with it!
Paul is probably so smug right now after Seb put a smoke thingy under his GT S…
I am sure soon the car would be abandoned somewhere and later found. This is just a PR stunt.
I hope Seb will get his car back asap.
Travelling through France to get to the CT meet in Germany, it’s a long shot, but I’ll keep my eyes peeled
If this is a prank I’m legit going to kill them.
