Hanumantha, who has a hobby of collecting second hand cars, bid for the car online purchased it in May. Now they have been delivered to him. While one of the cars came from Bengaluru, the second car was delivered to him from Mumbai.

Bidding for his villa is different from bidding for his cars - People will think in a different way to buy a villa if priced low and not even 10 % of the loan can be recovered
