Northants Police seize limo on way to Grand Prix
Officers from the Northants Road Policing Unit had to call a low loader to take the vehicle to their secure compound after it was stopped in Watling Street East, Towcester, en route to the Formula 1 Grand Prix which is taking place today (Sunday, July 14).
A couple in the back of the limo were on their way to the big race as a birthday treat - but were not aware of the issues. The driver was stopped by officers who suspected him of having no MOT, tax or insurance.
