The Bad News -- the soccer legend just got hit with a 6 month driving ban in London after being caught using his cell phone behind the wheel back in November,
The Good News -- the 43-year-old turned the courtroom into a catwalk and strutted into court looking BEAUTIFUL.
Officials say the square jawed superstar was chatting away on his celly while pushing a $130,000 Bentley in Central London on Nov. 21st -- and just like in Los Angeles, that's a big no-no across the pond these days.
During his appearance at Bromley Magistrates Court, Beckham -- wearing a sharp charcoal suit with a white shirt and black tie -- was ordered to pay a $1,000 fine and had his driving license suspended for 6 months.
