Lamborghini may be put under pressure Manchester City's player

The footballer was caught driving a supercar without insurance and a valid driver's license. French footballer Benjamin Mendy may lose his supercar Lamborghini Aventador SVJ. The Sun writes about this, reporting that the cost of the car is estimated at 475 thousand pounds.

Mendy bought the Aventador in France and drove it to the UK, where police in Cheshire stopped him on 5 November for an identity check. The football player did not have any insurance or a valid driver's license with him.

The police have arrested the supercar. Usually in such situations, the car is kept in storage by the authorities for 14 days. If the owner does not provide the necessary documents within these terms, the car is sent to the auction or under the press. 

In Benjamin's case, more than 20 days have passed since the confiscation of his Lamborghini. However, the French defender never submitted any documents. 

“Ben is a great footballer, but he doesn't understand the bureaucratic details,” the source told The Sun. - He did not even imagine that his car was not insured, and this was a colossal mistake on his part. He's desperately trying to fix it, but due to the fact that it's been 20 days since his arrest, he risks being destroyed. "

“The police know that he wants to return him and will gladly do so - but only after he has provided the necessary documents. Worryingly, after nearly three weeks, he still hasn't figured it out. This is a beautiful car, and he just wants to return it safe and sound, ”he said.

A total of 900 copies of the Aventador SVJ were produced. Power V12 is 770 hp, torque - 720 Nm. Acceleration of SVJ to 100 km / h takes 2.8 seconds, and to 200 km / h in 8.6 seconds. The maximum speed is over 350 km / h.

Driving without insurance is one of the most common traffic violations in the UK. Recently in the country, for example, the driver's car was confiscated 30 seconds after purchase. And another car owner was deprived of the car an hour after the purchase.

If you need to buy an MTPL policy, then it is not at all necessary to go to an insurance company, stand in line, and communicate with managers. Experience shows that it is easier (and even cheaper!) To buy an electronic policy. In addition, now there are special services that allow you to compare prices from all major insurers and look for the cheapest option. Sometimes you can save a thousand rubles! Or even one and a half.
