Wheel-y annoying! Kaley Cuoco punctures tire of her $250,000 new car... just over a week after she first took it for a spin

After inking a new contract that means she earns $1million per episode of The Big Bang Theory, Kaley Cuoco decided to treat herself to a fancy car.

But just over a week after she was first seen taking her SLS AMG GT Mercedes-Benz – with prices starting at a cool $250,000 – for a spin, the actress appears to be having some trouble with it.

Kaley was spotted stopping by a gas station in Los Angeles on Tuesday after she got a nail stuck in one of the tires.

The 28-year-old enlisted the help of a mechanic to remove the nail and repair the punctured tire, as she crouched down and checked it out while talking on the phone.

Kaley remained glued to her mobile as she made her way inside the store.

The blonde was dressed in a comfortable ensemble for the outing, and must have been hot in her cosy clothing.

But not everything has been so rosy for Kaley, who last month was amongst the celebrity victims whose nude photographs were leaked online.

The wife of tennis player Ryan Sweeting addressed the first hacking (a second emerged over the weekend) last week, during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

'I totally have Google alerts that come to my phone so anything that my name pops up [in] comes to my phone because I'm, like, obsessed. I need to know what's going on,' she said of discovering the news.

'So every day, every day there's like 30 'Kaley Cuoco nude photos' [alerts]. It's been going on for years.

'So then this one came up and I was like, "Oh, it's another fake one,"' she continued about the first leak. 'Then I started getting emails like, "No, there are some real ones going around".

'It was just a really bad situation but I took it in my own hands and make a joke about it because what are you going to do? You’ve got to make fun of yourself'.
