Police said the driver only bought the sports car for a few hours before it was taken off him by officers. The silver sports car was spotted by officers conducting a crackdown on rogue motorists in Hastings.
The flash wheels caught the officers’ eyes but when they put the number plate into the police computer they found the driver, who had only bought the car that morning, had not insured himself to drive it.
PC Duncan Cleverley, of Sussex Police, said: “The £50,000 car was seized by police and the driver reported for the offence. He will receive a summons to appear before Hastings magistrates in due course.”

I guess the insurance laws are different. In the US, your existing insurance covers your new car for a few days even if you haven't notified the insurance company of the change. That's to cover drivers buying a new car Friday night or Saturday, when insurance companies are typically closed.
