It was pulled over in Little Lullaway at around 2.45pm before officers arrested two men and one woman who were inside.
A spokesman for Essex Police said: "An 18-year-old man from Basildon remains in custody on suspicion of possession with intent to supply crack cocaine and heroin and possession of cannabis.
"A 21-year-old man from Wickford and a 25-year-old woman from Basildon have been released under investigation on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of crack cocaine and heroin."
