VICTORIA BECKHAM was left stranded in the middle of Los Angeles on Friday (04Sep09) – after her sportscar broke down.

The former Spice Girls star was out for a drive in Culver City when her Porsche Carrera seized up, leaving her stuck at the side of the road.

Beckham made an emergency call and was eventually rescued by an aide, leaving her white sportscar to be removed and driven back to her L.A. home on a tow-truck.

A source tells British newspaper the Daily Star Sunday, “She was near the Sony movie studios when she broke down. But she looked a far cry from Hollywood as the car was towed away.”
