A total of 296 vehicles were seized in Fife between January 1 and October 31 last year.
According to data released by Police Scotland from a Freedom of Information request. It covers vehicles that were taken by Police under section 165A (Scotland).
This allows Police to seize vehicles which are being driven without insurance or a driving licence.
The statistics show that among the vehicles were 21 Audis, 25 BMWs, as well as four Land Rovers.
A Maserati Granturismo Sport was also seized. Though the vehicle had a CAP value of £24,600 – they can sell for around £178,330 brand new – it was sold by Police at auction for a hammer price of £19,300.

A CAP (car auction prices) value is a benchmark for the price of new and used vehicles which are used to help estimate how much they will sell for at auction.
A Mercedez-Benz G350 with a CAP value of £41,100 was seized by Police in February 2024. It went unclaimed and sold for £29, 710 at auction.
Six motorcycles and one e-bike were also confiscated. The e-bike had a CAP value of £400 but went for £1,520.
In total, vehicles sold by police from Fife made them £60,250 in total last year.
Drivers who have had their vehicle removed can reclaim their vehicle. To do so, they can arrange collection immediately if it is being kept at a Vehicle Recovery Operators premises, and if they know its location.

Otherwise, they will get a statutory notice letter with instructions. A person will then need to prove their identity and that they own the car and pay any statutory charges.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Any seized or recovered vehicle, which is not claimed by the registered keeper, will be sold at auction.
“Any remaining amount, once the required fees are paid, is used to support public funding towards Police Scotland.”
