What actually happens to vehicles used in serious crime?

Levi Bellfield, the fat nonce used a variety of cars in his crimes. A bit of research to find out what was linked to what crime unearthed these pictures

Toyota Previa to run over Kate Sheedy





Ford Courier




Daewoo Nexia that was supposedly linked to Milly Dowler









Mark Bridger , another useless scum to this society

Used this Land Rover Discovery





2017 Westminister attacks

Hyundai Tuscon



7 July 2005 bombings

Jermaine Lindsay - Fiat Brava
2005 Nissan Micra





There’s lots more that I have to trawl for...



My question is - what happens to the cars involved?


This is not to detract from the shocking and tragic crimes involved - everyone except the killers deserve to rest in peace.

I've no idea about the vehicle you mentioned in your OP, but I do recall that about 8-10 years ago the Range Rover that the 'Essex Boys' were shot in was sold on eBay.
Ah yes the infamous Rettendon murders.

Unfortunately far too gruesome/NSFW to post on here yet the most well known vehicle..



Reminded me of two more signifcant vehicles

Cumbria shootings - Citroen Xsara Picasso




Disappearance of Madeleine McCann

- Renault Scenic






Police report:






Unidentified vehicle involving a suspect of the investigation





^^ can someone identify the car above?

F424 NPE. That Range Rover has probably the murkiest history of them all, with however many supposed sightings and appearances it put in over the years. A lot of them have been disputed but there's definitely a picture of that plate getting a speeding ticket from around 2004 or so as well.

If I had to guess, the cars either end up in police storage for the rest of time or are crushed. I have no proof of that and the fact people still discuss where the Range Rover from the aforementioned Rettendon murders got to would seem contrary, but it seems the most likely fate.
F424 NPE comes up as untaxed and un MOT’d

Tax : 01 November 2009
MOT: 24 July 2009

Just noticed that all of Bellfield’s cars had their tax expired on 01 March 2004 which suggests that they were seized by Police on or before this date.

Only exceptions are the Fiat Punto convertible he was infamously photographed in and the Daewoo Nexia used allegedly to lure Milly Dowler (which has vanished without a trace - I could only find a CCTV image , and a picture of it parked with the VRN redacted and no police reports or seizure photographs).

Or the stench of dead bodies.

Salisbury poisonings - BMW 320d ES - HD09 WAO


These police cars were buried after being deemed a hazard. So was the BMW.
