Sold confiscated Audi – now he is 'pissed disappointed'

The auction of celebrity hairdresser Dennis Knudsen's confiscated Audi Q7 did not go as hoped. The auctioneer is 'pissed disappointed'.

Owner of Haderslev Auktion, Peder Broe-Scherrebeck, is a bad loser. He says so himself in a comment to JydskeVestkysten .

On behalf of the state, the auction house in Haderslev sold the convicted mad driver Dennis Knudsen's leased Audi Q7 at forced auction.

And it did not go as hoped. At least not when it comes to the value of the car. In Haderslev, they had expected to be able to sell the car for somewhere between DKK 400,000 and DKK 450,000. It just never happened.

The first bid was DKK 200,000, but the car ended up being sold for DKK 375,000. And that is not good enough.

– I'm very disappointed; it is then a defeat. Perhaps we set our expectations a little too high, but I am disappointed. If it had been 5,000 below, I would have been just as disappointed.

– I'm not good at losing – that's also why I don't play Matador, says Peder Broe-Scherrebeck to the newspaper.

The owner of the auction house himself guesses that the question of the tax on the car may have caused the interested buyers to hold off on bidding. Incidentally, it was a car dealer who bought the Audi from the state from a holiday in Turkey.
