A sports car valued at about £150,000 could be sent to the crusher after it was seized by police near Ravenshead.

The driver of this brand new Aston Martin attracted the attention of Gedling’s dedicated team of pro-active Special Constables in the early hours of this morning (September 21) due to their manner of driving.

Officers stopped the vehicle on the A60 near Ravenshead and after a few checks, suspected the driver to not have any insurance to drive it.

Following a few enquiries, the police team seized the £150,000 supercar under Section 165 of the Road Traffic Act.
