“A friend wrote to me that Auta Super is ending. I realized that I don’t have a small technician or a key,” Chomát, who is a construction entrepreneur from Tábor, told Fairpress. After finding out that the seller from whom he bought the car was in trouble, he immediately set off from the south of Bohemia to Prague’s Hostivare, where Auta Super is based.
On the spot, he could only watch as the executors took the luxury cars away from the car showroom. “A total of about 40 were confiscated on the spot. I found out that the car, which I have had for almost two months, still belongs to the leasing company of the original user and the loan was not paid. The previous owner did not receive the money and therefore did not sign the power of attorney for the transfer. Therefore, I assume that his leasing company will take the car from me,” added Chomát.
The police could not comment on the matter in more detail and only confirmed Friday’s intervention in U Pekáren Street in Prague 15, where Auta Super is based. “I can say that since the early hours of the morning, Prague police officers have been carrying out standard criminal procedure actions in U Pekáren Street. When the circumstances allow, we will definitely be more specific,” police spokesman Jan Rybanský told Novinkám.
The editors contacted the telephone number of the Auto Super dealer with a request for an explanation, but it was unavailable on Friday. At the time the article was published, the website was working and still advertising over two hundred luxury cars.
Dozens of clients to whom the company owes cars or money have been waiting in front of the headquarters of the Prague dealer Auta Super since morning. “Customers are gathering at an almost empty warehouse to take away their cars that they had with the dealer for commission sale. Since January, the dealer had serious problems with paying money to his customers and allegedly owes many millions for the sale of their cars,” write social media users, who are referred to by the website idnes.cz, which was the first to report on the case.
