When Shakira gave a fan a brand new Lamborghini and £ 70,000 in cash, she probably did not expect them to be forced to sell it after just six months.
That is the position in which Michael Mejia is located after he quickly realizes how expensive it is to maintain a car worth more than £ 200,000.
Thaar-Topping Sensation Shakira made Majia's dreams come true when she donated him a brand new Lamborghini Urus that was used in her 'Soltera' music video.
The clear purple Supercar could be seen in the video clip for the Break-up folk song of Shakira after her controversial split by footballer Gerard Pique.
The four-fold Grammy winner enabled the American fans to participate in a competition to win the car and write at that moment: “This car was a gift that I gave myself when I started my single life, but I realized that what really matters is, the human connection.
“The car, the clothing, the material things, do not transform us. It is the people we love and the connections we build that really make the difference.”
Mejia was the lucky winner of the car and received another £ 70,000 by Shakira to help with the maintenance costs.
But now the designer born in Colombes has realized that the injection of money is simply not enough to pay his new wheels, and explains that the Urus has caused him more problems than fun.
In an interview about Spanish -speaking USS, El Gordo y la flaca shows: “Shakira gave me $ 90,000 (£ 70,000) to cover the costs of the car, taxes, transfers, flights, flights, maintenance and insurance.
“I spent $ 95,000 (£ 74,000), including insurance for six months, but after that I have to continue to pay $ 2,500 (£ 2,000) per month.”

“It is quite expensive, a person with an average economic level like me has won a car that can only retain millionaires.
“It's a bit of a funny situation, because even with $ 90,000 (£ 70,000), which is a lot of money, it wasn't enough.
“I thought I would have something left of that money to enjoy it, but I will have to stop money to keep it for six months.”
Mejia has even revealed that the costs are so high that he thinks he should sell the car himself.
Add: “Although I would like to have it forever, because it is the most precious thing I have, I think I have to auction or sell it because it is quite expensive to maintain”.
And it seems that selling it could completely change his life, because Mejia revealed that someone is willing to pay well about the opportunities to get the Shakira car.
“Believe it or not, someone offered me between $ 700,000 (£ 550,000) and $ 800,000 (£ 630,000),” he said.
“And that's great, but people tell me” as long as you don't sell it for less than $ 1 million (£ 785,000) or $ 2 million (£ 1.57 million). “
“I think that's everyone's dream to have a million dollars.”
