merguez : noun A merguez is a small spicy sausage made from beef, mutton.
Car stolen and sold with make-up very quickly.
In police jargon, the word merguez refers to a car that has been modified (engine number deleted, parts from other cars) to make it difficult to identify and used by criminals.
A merguez also designates in popular language a car that has been damaged and then repaired in such a way that the repair is masked, which makes it possible to avoid a drop in its value.
By extension, denotes an ordinary business that turns out to be a scam.
