Kean to represent car firm in McLaren case

Solicitor to the stars Gerald Kean, himself a high-spec car fan, will represent a dealership alleged not to have delivered on the purchase of a McLaren MP4 sports car by a Waterford medical consultant.

Edward O’Donnell claims he traded in his Ferrari California with Ocean Vehicle Trading Ltd and its director Oisín Legaspi on the basis it would part finance the purchase of a 2012 McLaren MP4 12C, which he says he never received.

Dr O’Donnell brought High Court proceedings against Ocean Vehicle Trading and Mr Legaspi, and obtained temporary freezing orders preventing a reduction of their assets below a value of €150,000.
