MOTOR MAYHEM £6m supercar haul including Bentleys & Rolls-Royces seized in crackdown on boy racers ‘using city roads as racetrack’

COPS have seized a haul of supercars worth £6million in a crackdown on boy racers using roads in London as a "racetrack".

The Metropolitan Police removed more than sixty supercars from capital city last week alongside five arrests.

Scotland Yard confiscated vehicles including a McClaren,  Bentley,  Rolls-Royce, Ferrari and Lamborghini.

Westminster local residents complained about cars driving poorly or at high-speed.

So the force worked with the Motor Insurers' Bureau to remove nuisance drivers who drive around the area more frequently in the summer  months.

The operation launched on the evening of August 2 and ran across that weekend seizing £6million worth of cars.

Metropolitan Police Special Inspector Geoff Tatman said: "The Met is working to put communities first - listening to and tackling their concerns.

"This hugely successful operation has proved we are dealing with those crimes, such as anti-social driving, that is causing most distress to residents and tourists.

Councillor Paul Dimoldenberg, Cabinet Member for City Management at Westminster City Council, said: "People who think it is ok to use our roads as their own private racetrack late at night are not welcome in Westminster.

"The noise and dangerous driving from these boy racers is often worse during the summer, so I welcome these results from the enforcement work.

"This underlines the council's zero tolerance approach to anti-social driving.
