Lamborghini seized as man claims other uninsured car

Post by Sid Bishop »

Quite unbelievable that a person would be owning two Lamborghini's and driving them around whilst being uninsured !!
Wonder what job this person does for a living ?

''An uninsured Lamborghini has been seized by police after the owner used it to pick up his other car - also confiscated for not being insured.
Greater Manchester Traffic Police tweeted the Lamborghini Aventador - worth more than £290,000 new - seized at Eccles police station was now on its way to join his other car".
It tweeted if you turn up to reclaim your car check "that the car you turn up in is covered on your policy first". It added the driver had been reported.
On Sunday, police seized another "flash" Lamborghini - one of a group of cars doing laps around the city centre "revving engines". https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-m ... r-48871096

Can you imagine what the insurance would be on a Lamborghini, it wouldn't surprise me that someone could afford to buy it but would not be able to afford to insure it.

I had a neighbour who had a Lamborghini that he used to park outside his house! It was great when he sometimes parked it outside mine. People might have thought it was mine. Of course, if they knew me that was pretty unlikely.

But to be able to buy 2 yet not being able to insure either ?
Some strange characters around.
Unless he was a footballer, rich sportsman etc, one must wonder what line of business the owner of these two cars is in ?

Doesn't have to be in to anything. Last night one of my mates was telling me he's bought a £1.3m property with a 100% mortgage. He can't afford that, but his dad is standing as cover with Assets hes built up over 50 years.

So not knocking my mate and fair play to him, but sometimes you get help from family.

It might be the case here, Daddy bought the cars but he has to insure them and I'd hazard a guess its gonna be 20k plus hence why he takes the risk? Or he's just plain thick!!
