A contract Paul Bunney entered to buy a British sports car from a friend was binding despite him being in a manic episode, South Australia's Supreme Court finds.
Claim money was a loan
Mr Bunney had earlier asked if Mr Holt would sell the car, but he said no because it was not driveable at the time. Mr Bunney superglued a $2 coin to his kitchen counter, saying Mr Holt could claim it if he could not pay back the loan and could instead give Mr Bunney the green 1992 Aston Martin Virage.
