It’s hard not to notice a bright purple Lamborghini with orange trim. So the driver of this £350,000 supercar was asking for trouble when he went for a spin without a front numberplate.

Police spotted the infringement and impounded the vehicle after its 24-year-old owner – thought to be a member of the Qatari royal family – was unable to produce evidence that he had a driving licence or insurance.

Crowds gathered as the 220mph Aventador was towed away in London’s Knightsbridge.

Arab playboys descend on the wealthy neighbourhood each summer in costly cars flown from home and often hit trouble for lacking the correct papers.




The mean machines are a draw for petrolheads but the roaring engines annoy residents.

Dozens of onlookers gathered to photograph the scissor-doored supercar, which has been customised by a Japanese tuning company.

One fan said: ‘It is great when the wealthy foreign tourists come over to London every summer as you always see these amazing supercars.

‘The Lamborghini looked like something out of Tron, it was absolutely stunning.

‘Hopefully there was just some confusion over the correct paperwork and it will be back on the road soon.’
