Toy Car Worth £95 Towed on Flatbed Lorry

A toy Mini Cooper was hilariously towed on Kensington High Street, leaving locals joking about the kid’s “illegal parking” and Hollywood actor Warwick Davis.

A battery-powered toy Mini Cooper, designed for kids, was seen being towed away on the back of a flatbed lorry, leaving many passersby bewildered.

One motorist, clearly amused by the odd sight, joked that the young owner of the toy car would likely be upset and probably parked illegally while going to buy some sweets.

The miniature red version of the iconic car retails for £94.99.

The witness quipped, “Anything can get towed these days. The little guy’s not going to be happy. He just wanted to pop into the shop for a packet of Fruit Pastilles and a lolly.”

The unusual incident occurred yesterday (August 28) on Kensington High Street, located in the affluent area of Kensington, west London.

It’s still unclear why the tiny car ended up on the lorry.

Locals quickly took to making light of the situation, with the story being shared by Luxury Auto News.

Neil Redrupp playfully suggested the toy might belong to Hollywood actor Warwick Davis, saying, “Warwick Davis is going to be so annoyed.”
