The driver of a £200,000 car was reported after he was found to be eight years too young.
Merseyside Police confirmed a Lamborghini Urus had been seized after it was spotted being driven by someone who was deemed eight years too young. Posting on the force's social media channels, it was reported the insurance policy of the supercar meant only drivers aged 40 and over were covered.
When officers stopped the car, they found the driver was in fact 32. As a result, the car was seized and the driver was reported.

The post, on the Roads Policing Unit Twitter page, said: "The insurance policy for this Lamborghini Urus only permitted drivers over 40 years old. Unfortunately, the driver on this occasion was eight years too young and was therefore uninsured.
"The vehicle was seized and the driver reported."
Insurance for drivers aged over 40 is to reduce car insurance premiums, although the make, model and year of the car play a factor in the same way it does with regular car insurance.
People were quick to join in, with Peter replying: "Lamborghini to Arriva Bus in under 5 seconds courtesy of Roads Policing."
