Yep. Confiscated. Sold by public auction. And they keep the proceeds. Different to the 28 day impoundment thing, where you (eventually) get your car/bike back
Most common usage (I think) is repeated serious drink driving or disqualified driving , within 4 years.128Confiscation of motor vehicle
(1)This section applies if a person is convicted of any of the following offences:
(a)an offence punishable by imprisonment for a term of more than 12 months, or by imprisonment for life:
(b)an offence against any of the provisions of sections 35(1)(a), 35(1)(b), [36A(1)(a) or (c),] 38(1), 39(1), or 56 to 60 of the Land Transport Act 1998 (which relate to driving offences).
(2)A court may exercise the power in subsection (3) if a person is convicted of an offence referred to in subsection (1) and the court by or before which the offender is convicted is satisfied that any motor vehicle owned by the offender or in which the offender has any interest at the time of conviction—
(a)was used to commit or facilitate the commission of the offence, whether or not the offender was the driver or person in charge; or
(b)in the case of an offence against any of the provisions of sections 35(1)(a), 35(1)(b), 36(1)(a), [36A(1)(a) or (c),] 38(1), 39(1), and 56 to 62 of the Land Transport Act 1998, was being driven by, or in the charge of, the offender at the material time; or
(c)was used by the offender, whether or not the offender was the driver or person in charge, to facilitate the offender's flight or avoid his or her detection or arrest after the commission of the offence.
(3)The court may order that the motor vehicle be confiscated.
(4)The court may make an order under this section in addition to, or instead of, passing any other sentence or making any other order.
(5)In deciding whether to make an order under this section, the court must have regard to—
(a)any undue hardship that the making of the order would cause to the offender in relation to his or her trade, business, profession, occupation, or employment:
(b)any undue hardship that the making of the order would cause to any other person who would otherwise have the use or benefit of the motor vehicle on a regular basis:
(c)the nature and extent of the offender's interest in the motor vehicle, and the nature and extent of any other person's interest in it:
(d)any other considerations that the court thinks fit.
Compare: 1985 No 120 s 84(2), (4)
129Confiscation of motor vehicle after second offence
(1)This section applies if,—
(a)on or after 26 July 1996, a person commits an offence (the “first offence”) against any of sections 32(1)(a) or (b), 35(1)(a) or (b), 36(1), [36A(1)(a) or (c),] [39(1),]56(1) or (2), 58(1), 60(1), 61(1), [61(2)] or 62(1) of the Land Transport Act 1998 (which relate to driving offences) [or section 171 of the Crimes Act 1961 (but only where the manslaughter involved the use of a motor vehicle)]; and
(b)within 4 years after the date of the commission of that offence, the person commits a further offence (the second offence) against any of those provisions of the Land Transport Act 1998.
You are not allowed to won another one for 12 months, either.
