A Lamborghini driver caught speeding in Kent has been given a ticket by police.

Officers clocked the luminous green supercar in Herne Bay going at 41mph in a 30mph limit earlier today.

The offence in Sea Street, opposite the Studd Hill estate, was spotted by officers from the Kent Police roads unit, who were working in the area with the Canterbury community safety unit.

The luxury car is thought to be a Lamborghini Huracán Performante.

The model can go from 0 to 60mph in 2.9 seconds and is valued at £215,000, according to autocar.co.uk.
