A New Zealand man who got so drunk he forgot he had sold his car contacted police the next day to report it stolen.

The man decided to sell his car for NZ$800 (£440) so he could purchase more alcohol on his big night out, but could not remember his actions the next day.

He reported the car missing at Rotorua police station, but the case took an unusual turn when the man who purchased it on car-selling site CarJam came forward.
