Laura Simpson has listed the car Wayne Rooney was caught drink-driving in for ten times its market value, sources have claimed.
The 29-year-old previously complained that she was sick of getting ‘chanted’ at by ‘white van men at traffic lights’ who recognised her from Wayne’s arrest scandal in September.
And now the mum-of-one is reportedly asking for £12,500 for her humble black Volkswagen Beetle, which she’s said to have had for 10 years.
Life in the fast lane: Laura Simpson is selling the car Wayne Rooney was caught drink-driving in for ten times its market value, sources have claimed
Laura was reportedly seen putting a sign in the vehicle’s window advertising it for £12,5000, according to The Mirror.
The car was made famous after Wayne was driving it while three times over the legal limit by police on September first, with Laura Simpson next to him.
The Everton striker met her on a night out in Cheshire and he was giving her a lift home on the night they allegedly ‘kissed and cuddled’.
Laura previously took to social media to announce she was going to sell her VW Beetle because she gets so many chants from ‘white van men at traffic lights’.

Right then: It comes as Laura hinted last week that she’s hungry to make money by posting a cheeky tweet on Saturday which said: ‘If the outcome ain’t income… LOG. ME. OFF’
Wayne has apologised for his ‘unforgivable lack of judgement’ as he was banned from driving for two years and given 100 hours’ community service.
He has been throwing himself into community service in Macclesfield, spending his 32nd birthday alone as his wife and children soaked up the sun on holiday.

She also allegedly made a lewd remark about the size of Wayne’s manhood during a late-night Twitter exchange with a fan Manchester United, the footballer’s former club.

Asked for details on their encounter – which took place in the early hours of September 1 – Laura quipped: ‘Shrek has got tekkers,’ which is slang for technique, the Daily Star reported.
Keen to press on more intimate matters, the cheeky fan quizzed: ‘Was he hung like a hamster or an ogre?’
Saucy Laura then hastily responded: ‘Like an ogre,’ prompting an amused response from the fan.

However, the party girl later removed the tweets, which would contradict earlier denials that anything more than ‘kissing and cuddling’ took place between them
The tweets also came just a short while after she appeared to make light of the pair’s drinking and driving incident.
The office worker, 29, shocked her followers when an image of ciders with the accompanying caption ‘don’t drink drive’ was posted to her account on Friday.
The next morning Laura apologised for the ‘insensitive’ tweet as she revealed her friend was behind the message.
