A criminal's confiscated Rolls-Royce Ghost is being sold to the highest bidder at an auction.
The car was seized under the Proceeds of Crime Act from the owner, who was at the forefront of a multimillion-pound drug ring operating in Essex. In total, the gang were ordered to repay a hefty £800k confiscation order.
With less than 49,000 miles on the clock, the luxury 2012 vehicle will be sold to the highest bidder at Wilsons Auctions on behalf of a law enforcement agency committed to combating organised crime. Other items being auctioned off include a BMW X5, Rolex Sea-Dweller 400, and vintage Chanel handbags.
