A SILLY driver of a luxury vintage Ferrari only had themselves to blame when their brand new set of wheels was towed by police.
The £1.56million sports car was seized by police in Lowestoft, Suffolk after officers discovered that the vehicle had no insurance.
The police say that the driver had only recently purchased the Ferrari F40 - originally made in 1987 and a car collector's dream - when he was caught driving it illegally.
Lowestoft Police had a chuckle at the incident and said: "The Kestrels were on the prowl (as they usually are) and spotted a Road Traffic Offence.
"Following a few checks turns out this really expensive car which was recently purchased, did not have any insurance..

"Oh man bad times..."
The Kestrels act as a county-wide team in Suffolk that work at a neighbourhood level to fight crime and criminal behaviour.
The owner of the Ferrari was left with no car after the recovery company towed it.
The unknown driver will only get his smart motor back when they've bought an insurance policy.
They will also be wacked with a £150 recovery fee and be charged for storage every day until the car is collected.
Elsewhere, another dangerous motorist almost caused a huge motorway collision.

Meanwhile, this unlucky owner of a luxury Range Rover had a terrible day during a disastrous visit to the car wash.
The expensive car might have got more of a wash than it had bargained for.
