A number of police cars attended a garage in Stapleford to assist with an 'enforcement action'.
Two police cars and a number of police vehicle transporters were dispatched to Maranello Cars and Detailing Limited in Hickings Lane, to assist a third party with the action.
Police officers were seen loading a number of vehicles onto the flatbed trucks for transportation, including a black Audi A3.
A Nottinghamshire Police spokeswoman said: "We are enforcing civil duties for a partner agency. Police are only there to assist. It is a High Court enforcement."
Nottinghamshire Live asked the business for a response but they did not wish to comment.
