    what is your opinion on this. Is it a bit of a waste destroying a car worth 120,000 or will this unique oppertuniy raise a lot of money? If you can't access the link, they are auctoning the right to be the person to press the button to destroy his car.

    sorry if there is already a thread on this.

    Are you sure it's worth 120,000??
    I don't think so.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,479 ✭✭✭sonic85


    its a piece of sh!t - wouldnt give 500 yo yos for it


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,916 ✭✭✭✭orourkeda


    Wasnt there mention of the possilility of the proceeds going to charity


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,089 ✭✭✭ascanbe


    Says in the article that the car is 92' reg, bought by National Recycling for 1234.56 euro.
    They're really going after these guys. :rolleyes:

    All the way to Page2.

    Anyhow, it was bought at an auction... people buying it didn't know who the previous owner was.

    What's the big deal?

    It goes to his debt anyway... not him...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,246 ✭✭✭✭Riamfada


    yeah and my phone number is 08612345678


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,479 ✭✭✭sonic85


    he must have had it when it was new? i doubt he was driving it lately - id imagine his salary allowed him stretch to an 09 or 10 merc or beemer. his dogs were probably sleeping in it

    Easy mistake to make. In any other civilised country the authorities would be making serious efforts to go after his/his wife's most valuable assests and he'd be in jail for fraud.
    This is Ireland, though; i'm just surprised the state didn't buy the car and give it back to him.

    Well thats laughable a 1992 seanie would,nt be found dead driving a 92reg car into druids glen, his mercs were always brand new and top of the range every year, love to know were he had that one hiding?

    It's probably worth more in scrap tbh. It's a base model, will never be a classic.

    The irony here is one will need to have been from Seanie's own ranks to pay the bidding price to destroy that car.

    In the time it took me to click those two links, which are both the same, the price had jumped 500 quid. Jaysus. Derek Mooneys Jumper is gonna make a few quid

    They took his 92 bmw:eek:
    He must be beside himself.
    Still, I'm sure the smug little f*cker will take comfort from the millions of euros in his wifes bank account.
