Mousset’s £300,000 orange Lamborghini Aventador was left extensively damaged after it was involved in a collision with two parked cars on Abbeydale Road South in the early hours of Monday, January 4.
It struck a Land Rover Discovery spinning it into a stone gatepost which ended up demolished in a garden, before crashing into another parked car.

The Lamborghini had one of its sides torn off in the collision and came to a halt in the middle of the road, with fuel and oil pouring from the car.
Two men in their 20s were arrested on suspicion of drink driving and later released under investigation.
South Yorkshire Police said no charges have yet been brought over the collision.
Four days after the smash, Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder confirmed that the car involved was Mousset's, and the Frenchman, who signed for the Blades for £10 million last summer, had been training.

“We've talked to Lys about his discipline and commitments to the club and his responsibilities as a professional footballer.
“It's been left with the legals and if there's any action taken by the police, it'll be dealt with.
“It's disappointing when you see the pictures and you hear the story, but it'll be dealt with internally and fairly. I think that's the best way of putting it.”
