Hubballi, Aug 28: Good times have begun for Hubballi's businessman Hanumantha Reddy as he purchased two cars belonging to liquor baron Vijay Mallya, at Rs 1.58 lakh through an online auction. The original cost of those cars were Rs 53 lakh, when Vijay Mallya purchased them years ago.

He paid Rs 40,000 for a 2002 Hyundai Sonata (MH 01 DA 7227), while the 2003 Hyundai Acord 2.4 AT (MH 01 DA 1235) was purchased at Rs one lakh. Remaining amount was paid as taxes.

The two cars were put on online auctioning by United Spirits Company in January after the liquor baron failed to repay the loans taken from various banks. 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.

Both the cars are said to be in good condition, and with news of him purchasing Mallya's car spreading like a wildfire in the city, there has been a demand for those cars now. “People are asking me to resell those cars and they are ready to pay higher price than what I paid for them,” he said.

He said people are ready to pay Rs 2.5 lakh for the Hyundai Sonata, which is golden colour and the second car is currently fetching him Rs 4.5 lakh. However, he has not yet made up his mind to sell these cars.

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

When the Owners of such Fleet of Cars is the infamous Mallya how come such demands for Cars at such exorbitant Prices are placed and Villa and other Estate NO ONE is coming ahead to bid ???How come such Money is collected /pocketed by some one other than Banks ??Courts MUST direct such Money collected to repay the outstanding Debts of the Owners and NEVER be pocketed as PRIZE for some other Owner
