In November, traffic officers seized Benjamin Mendy's supercar for not having the necessary documentation. The law states that if the car is not claimed within 14 days it can be auctioned or scrapped.

Manchester City's French defender Benjamin Mendy is not only concerned about this weekend's English football superclassic against Manchester United, but also about preventing the British transit authority from ordering the shot or, in the worst case, the destruction of your expensive Lamborghini Aventador SVJ. The supercar coupe, valued at around $ 600,000 and of which only 900 copies exist worldwide, was purchased by the player in Paris before being driven to the UK. On November 15, according to the Carscoops site, the footballer was arrested by the police in Cheshire for driving the luxury Italian car without the insurance required by law and without a valid license in that territory. Because Mendy did not have this documentation, basic to be able to circulate on public roads, the police officers seized the Lamborghini, which could now even be crushed if it does not regularize its situation.

 

 

In the United Kingdom, the aforementioned medium indicates, police authorities usually keep a car for up to 14 days, during which the owner must provide the required documentation for the car to be returned. If the procedure is not carried out during that period of time, the law establishes that the vehicle can be auctioned or simply shredded to become scrap. In this regard, the newspaper The Sun indicated that almost three weeks after the seizure of the exclusive Aventador SVJ, the footballer had not made any claim. "Ben is a great footballer, but he's not good at bureaucratic details like paperwork," a source close to the City defender told the British newspaper. “He didn't realize he wasn't insured, so it's a monumental mistake on his part. You are desperately trying to correct it, but the fact that it has been 20 days since your car was impounded, you risk it being destroyed. The police know they want it back and are happy to return it, but only after they have provided the necessary documentation, "the source added.
