Mayoral car auction fails to attract bids

Mayoral car auction fails to attract bids
The auction of former Galway City Mayor Niall O Brolcháin's 'green' mayoral car on eBay has so far only attracted two bids.

The Toyota Prius was placed for auction with the hope of raising money for charity. However, the car has not garnered much interest with only two bids being placed on the site. The first was on the 26 June at ?23,200 followed by a lower bid of ?23,100 on 30 June. Tom Hogan Motors donated it at cost price and a reserve price was placed on the item.

The auction is scheduled to end tomorrow, Thursday 5 July.

Cllr O Brolcháin chose the Prius over the usual Jaguar received by the City Mayor due to the lower emissions. According to the site, the 2006 vehicle has air conditioning, alloy wheels, CD Player, climate control, power windows, navigation system, parking sensors, power-assisted steering (PAS) and sunroof.

Anyone interested in placing a bid on the car can do so on the eBay website or through Tom Hogan Motors.
