Not one of my cases, but worthy of note?

One of our prolific disqualified drivers was sentenced to four months inside just recently. Upon his release from Featherstone prison, he was collected by one of his friends who was stupid enough to allow him to drive the car. Whereupon they were pulled over within a few seconds by the Police.

In Court this morning he was sent down for a further four months and will have to serve the remainder of his previous sentence. He was further disqualified for five years...

And his friend's car, a Jaguar S type, said to be worth in the region of £5000, was seized by way of a deprivation order. Bye bye Jaguar.

Some people refuse to learn

thats a cheap F Type Paul, presumably a typo ?

Apart from losing his car should not the freind also have been charged...ading and abetting etc.

You're right Rob - perhaps I was day-dreaming it was, in fact, an S type.

It's a possibility Paul, although notoriously difficult to prove.

well this one is worth around £5k and still a nice car to lose in that way, sounds like they are 2 arrogant idiots !

To be fair Rob, I got the impression that the chap who owned the car wasn't aware of the full situation.

Will they let me buy it?

'Bought the only car I would swap the ZT for.

I believe those worth selling go for auction somewhere in Warwick.
