Milanov was sacked for gross misconduct by a police hearing in the capital last week.
A union rep said Milanov was too busy with work to attend, but said he still wants to join the police “some day”.
His LinkedIn page claims he is a data analyst for holiday firm TUI.
The Met said Milanov was driving off-duty in the early hours in July when he was stopped.
Shana Hanna, for the force, said: “A police light was fitted at the rear window, a police beacon in the back, as well as equipment found in the boot.”
“Special Constable Milanov was not authorised to be in possession of this property.”
In a statement, Milanov said: “I love volunteering as a Special Constable and am very sad to see it go.
“I had a really good few years and will take everything I learned from the job forever.”
Milanov did not attend the accelerated misconduct hearing and did not respond to the allegations.
