After its unsuccessful attempt to enter F1 this year, two of the USF1 team's bespoke trailers have been seized under a High Court order issued by a UK creditor and are now for sale on eBay.

Nothing in F1 comes cheap, but in accordance with the law, these will now be sold to the highest bidder, without a reserve. When new, they were estimated to have carried a £300,000 price tag each!

David Carter, Director of The Sheriffs Office, responsible for enforcing the High Court writ said: "As a keen motorsport fan, it is certainly one of the more interesting seizures we've made. The trailers were recently bought from Brawn GP by the judgment debtor and really are something special. We've already has a lot of interest and are now selling them via eBay".

The Sheriffs Office are authorised High Court Enforcement Officers (HCEO). They enforce judgments of £600 and over on behalf of commercial and private clients. The national average recovery rate is 67p in the pound of all enforceable cases. The Sheriffs Office recovery rate is 93p in the pound.

The Sheriffs Office are also certificated bailiffs, recovering unpaid rent and repossessing property for landlords, and offer debt collection and tracing services.

The test trailers were seized under the High Court writ of fieri facias from USF1 by The Sheriffs Office on behalf of a creditor. The trailers were previously owned by Brawn GP and currently feature their logo and the name Jenson Button 22 on the side.

One of the test trailers is a triple axle straight frame chassis with 1250mm pin height and the other is a triple axle step frame chassis with 1250mm pin height. The first trailer is for the transportation of equipment and has an engineers' office in front with space for 10 engineers. The second trailer is for the transportation of three single seater race cars and equipment. It has a machine shop equipped with lathe/mill, draws/cupboards and overhead lockers. Both trailers have a two ton D'Hollandia Race Car tail lift with a central access door and aluminium clip on the steps, a Hydrovane compressor, and a serviced 90Kva Webb Generator.
