Lamborghini worth £400,000 seized in crackdown on uninsured cars

A Lamborghini aventador which was roughly worth around £400,000 was among the vehicles seized by police during a crackdown on uninsured cars.

The orange supercar was initially stopped by officers in Newham, east London as it had no front number plate, and further checks revealed the driver was not the registered owner.

The Lamborghini Aventador - which does 0-62mph in 2.9 seconds and has a top speed of 217mph - was seized when police discovered the driver's insurance policy did not cover him to get behind the wheel of the luxury motor.

It was one of over 180 vehicles seized as part of the Metropolitan Police's Operation Cubo yesterday.

37 arrests were made for vehicle-related crime, including drink driving, driving without insurance and robbery.
