Yes, if you obtained that car or the loan to buy that car through fraudulent means i.e., you lied on your credit application. Simply defaulting on a loan is not a criminal offense in the U.S.

Yes, the police can seize a car that you still owe money on. Though, they have to have a valid reason for doing so or if they have a court order.

Do the british police have the power to seize a car if the driver's license has expired?

The police can seize a car if they believe it is being driven by someone who does not hold a valid driving licence. To reclaim a seized car, the owner can attend the relevant police force pound and present a valid driving licence, proof of insurance and proof of ownership. Once those documents have been presented, the owner must pay the recovery fee (which tends to go up every day the car is impounded). If the owner does not claim the car within a set time frame (which changes depending on the police force), the car will be destroyed.

Possession of drugs found in a coat in a car with two people the driver only arrested in trial they have the drugs as evidence they don't have the coat that they found drugs iN will charge hold up?

The fact that the police did not seize the coat will not have any bearing on the outcome of the case. Using an analogy, if the drugs were found on the dashboard of the car, the police would not also seize the dashboard to prove the case. Many drug cases revolve around drugs being located in articles of clothing. It would not be reasonable for the police to also seize the clothing in these cases (it would also be inappropriate in some cases, ie underwear, bras, ect).
