Two luxury cars, a Lamborghini Murcielago and a Mercedes-Benz G-Class, met their end not on the race track but in a crusher as they were destroyed by authorities in Vietnam.
On July 10, the Council for the Destruction of Administrative Violation Exhibits in Quang Binh province, Vietnam, crushed two luxury vehicles: a green Lamborghini Murcielago and a yellow Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG. These cars were seized by the police in August 2020 on suspicion of being smuggled into the country.
The Lamborghini, bearing the license plate number 29U-3817, and the Mercedes, with the plate number 29A-519.76, were both found to have no legal origin papers. The Vietnamese vehicle registration system also had no record of these cars’ license plates, chassis, or engine numbers.

The destruction of these luxury cars was carried out by the police in collaboration with relevant units, ensuring compliance with regulations, safety, cost-effectiveness, and environmental protection.
The Lamborghini Murcielago, named after a Spanish fighting bull, is one of the brand’s iconic models. Photos of the destroyed car show significant exterior damage, with the green wrap peeling off to reveal the original black paint, and the logo and wheels missing. The windshield was also shattered.
The Lamborghini Murcielago LP640, unveiled at the 2006 Geneva Motor Show, is powered by a 6.5L naturally aspirated V12 engine that produces 640 horsepower and 660 Nm of torque. This supercar can accelerate from 0 to 97 km/h in just 3.4 seconds and reach a top speed of 340 km/h.
Only a handful of Lamborghini Murcielagos are known to exist in Vietnam, and most of them are the LP 640 version.
