The VP Auto auction house is organizing an extraordinary event this Saturday, December 21 in Caudan, near Lorient (Morbihan).
Among the sixty exceptional cars on sale, the Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder repainted in fluorescent green is causing a sensation. This 519 horsepower car, equipped with an automatic transmission, was seized at the end of October in incredible circumstances.
This Lamborghini, estimated at nearly €74,000, was confiscated from a luxury car rental company in Lorient, rue de Verdun. During this operation, the manager of the establishment, Hubert Bargot, violently opposed the police and a bailiff who came to note the closure of his company, deregistered for three years.
The man brandished a sword and attacked the police officers present, seriously injuring one of them in the neck and hands. Another official was also hit in the left arm and neck. The attack was filmed.
Despite the use of an electric pulse gun, the intervention turned into a tragedy before Hubert Bargot was arrested. Since then, he has been indicted for attempted murder of a person holding public authority.
This violent episode led to the seizure of several properties, including this Lamborghini, which will be one of the star lots of the auction.
Besides this luxury car, VP Auto offers an impressive catalog, including Ferrari, Lotus and Audi R8. Collector car enthusiasts and automobile enthusiasts will have the opportunity to acquire rare and prestigious models.
The event promises to attract many curious people and collectors.
