Kerry Katona's repossessed cars put up for sale
POOR Kerry Katona's other car WAS a Porsche... until the repo man towed it away.
Now the skint I'm a Celeb star and hubby Mark Croft's fleet of flash motors is down to two-a saloon for her and a boy racer for him.
Click here to see more photos of Kerry Katona's cars
We can reveal her Porsche Cayenne GTS was the latest car to disappear, following the Lamborghini, Aston Martin and mega Range Rover.
They couldn't make the payments on the Cayenne and handed back the keys, just like they did with their Porsche Carrera, which we revealed was repossessed in December.
Now both motors are being advertised on the net by a firm which deals in cut-price supercars. Kerry, 28, is bankrupt, owing the tax man £82,000.
A pal said: "They had to call up the finance company and tell them to take back the cars because they don't have the cash to keep them.
"The cars were on lease agreements-you can't keep those deals when you are facing bankruptcy proceedings." The silver soft-top Carrera cost Kerry £70,000 in May 2007, and she spent £10,000 having it fitted out with extras.
The car-with personalised Croft reg plate-is now being sold by AB Holdings in Runcorn, Cheshire, for £58,994.
The couple's Cayennecost £60,000 last year. It is on the site but has been sold for £46,994.
The only cars left outside the couple's £800,000 home in Wilmslow, Cheshire, are a £45,000 Mercedes saloon and a £55,000 Nissan GT-R.
The pal said: "Mark is gutted." Kerry's income has dwindled over the last two years.
Her £1.5 million-a-year from book deals, an OK! mag column and her Iceland ads is down to just the £250,000-a- year ad deal.
Still, Mum can always go to Iceland -on a bike.

I also refuse to shop in iceland because of Kerry Katona. There will be an iceland in our old woolworths store which is quite near to me but still i'd refuse to shop in it until they ditch KK. she is a waste of space.

I am so BORED of hearing about her pathetic life
By Steff. Posted March 2 2009 at 10:44 AM.
I blame Mark Croft, he is nothing but a parasite. He has bled that poor girl dry. The guy is a controlling half-whit who if had a brain cell, it would be lonely.
It is a shame that Kerry never met someone who liked her for who she is, and not her bank balance.
So, if you become available Kerry, give me a call.
By Marty. Posted March 1 2009 at 11:55 PM.
I voted for Kerry in the Jungle, she will always have my vote I am not fickkle if you care about someone you should care, get over yourselves with the iceland comments i wasnt raised on a council estate but you were!! Good luck to Kerry

GOOD ON YOU ICELAND - What would life be like if companys like ICELAND tossed aside staff(people) after a couple of mistakes.
For all the idiots who don't want to shop somewhere because of Kerry , how petty.
Lets hope if you make a mistake that someone will give you another chance.
I will shop at ICELAND even more now.
By Pistol Pete. Posted March 1 2009 at 10:47 PM.
Dear Iceland, my wife, kids and I will appear in your ads for much less than you pay Katona. We are a wholesome family who are down on our luck. Please help us out so we don't have to live on the muck from Farmfoods.
By Markus. Posted March 1 2009 at 8:05 PM.
I'm sure Iceland will manage just fine, without the handful of no-life, hateful, jealous people, commenting here, who won't shop with them. :o)
By Andy. Posted March 1 2009 at 7:17 PM.
If ever there was a case of love is blind this is it. Kerry needs to open her eyes and at the very least put her foot down and make that greedy selfish husband of hers start to contribute towards providing for his family. Why the hell cant he get a job? Once the money dries up i feel a kiss n tell to the highest bidder and its bye bye kerry.

It seems that most so-called celebrities do not live in the real world.
I was brought up with the understanding - if you have a job keep it; keep a roof over your head and take care of your health.
I have no sympathy for the irresponsible people, like Kerry, who try to live on past glories and fame, think they will always be employed and creditors, like the tax man, don't exist. It's the 'It will never happen to me" attitude.
Why all the cars? You can only drive one at a time!
Who, in their right mind, would employ a person with a drink problem to advertise their wares? Oh, sorry, she insists it's the medication she is taking!
She needs to take stock of the situation, work out how much she owes, and to whom, and take it from there.
Problems don't go away overnight - they have to be worked at.
If she doesn't buck up her ideas she will be joining the other 2 million plus down at the Job Centre.
By Steve. Posted March 1 2009 at 4:17 PM.
They should take all her cars off her and let her walk to the places that she has to go to or get public transport after all she could do with some exercise to shift a few pounds and if she did walk to places she would save a few pounds on having to get liposuction. I think she is nothing but a fat chav who only thinks about herself she dosent think about her kids if she did care about her kids she would not be getting wasted on drink or drugs every day anyone else would have there kids taken off them. I think she is a waste off of space and as for these people who feel sorry for her they need to get a life and start living in the real world.
By morgan swift. Posted March 1 2009 at 4:06 PM.
Why doesn't her husband go and get a job so he can help support her and buy his own cars!
By Jane. Posted March 1 2009 at 3:46 PM.
I agree, i also avoid iceland like the plague and will never shop there until it stops employing kerry katona to front its chain.
I really wish the woman would go away although i do think that her life would have been a lot better without her husband. Feel sorry for her in a way, she should kick him out and get her life back!
By kate. Posted March 1 2009 at 3:04 PM.
give the girl a break no one knows what her marrige is realy like and she seems to love the bloke at least shes got the kids with her unlike waster brian and she not slagging people off just to get her name in the papers like katie price it seems like no matter what she does the press have got it in for her

I like their square sausage and so does my husband
By Angelina Ballerina. Posted March 1 2009 at 1:57 PM.
Kerry has not had it easy of late. People ought to leave her alone. her life has been destroyed by Brian Mc Fadden, she has never got over the rat. Mind you Crafty Croft is not much better, he seems to be a complete leech. Kerry is a fighter, a trier, fair play to her. She deserves better and people should be a little more kinder to her, we are not all perfect. I understand all the trappings may be gone but Kerry will fight back and do the right thing. Best of luck to you Kerry \_/ Slainte.
By peter mc garry. Posted March 1 2009 at 1:50 PM.
Kerry : Your GREEDY Husband did this to you you had money the lot and he came along a blew it all !!! When its gone its gone xxxx You will see sense when the moneys gone and him !!!!!!!
By victoria. Posted March 1 2009 at 1:25 PM.
How did she manage to get credit to buy these cars in the first place when she's already in hock to the taxman for a vast sum. Small wonder this country is in such a mess financially, with parasites such as her and that husband draining this country.
As for crying about it all, it's a case of Face? Bothered? I'v got no time or sympathy for her she's a drunken drug addict and beneath my comtempt.
Go Away Kerry.
By Lorna Wanstall. Posted March 1 2009 at 12:36 PM.
Take one look at that gold digging husband of hers and he's the reason why she is bankrupt!
By sam smith. Posted March 1 2009 at 12:38 PM.
With or without Kerry Iceland is Chavland due to it's products of crude, fatty, sugary foods. The French equivalent (Picard) offers top quality, fine foods at a reasonable price. Iceland would make far more money if they binned their chips and burgers and produced decent grub.
I prefer reading stories about Kerry, far more than Jade, I empathise with her dreadful upbringing, a victim of her own parents. So I understand why she needs a father figure in her life, but for the love of god, it's so sad she's with greedy, selfish Croft. He's dragging her further and further down. She needs to find a decent account her to hold her hand and explain that if you earn £1.5 million a year, you should save up and buy the house outright, no point paying all that interest to the bank, and rising reposession because you've taken out a ridiculous loan you won't be able to pay in tough times. Same goes for the cars - why on earth buy 6 cars on finance when she could have bought 2 outright?
Time to boot out Mark Kerry. Sell the house and buy a smaller one with cash...oh but you need to pay the taxman off too. Perhaps then you'd win back a bit of respect and start earning again?
By SarahinFrance. Posted March 1 2009 at 12:23 PM.
she is horribe vile 100% low life and for that leach who married her. what works can describe him ....... when will it get in her thick head when she has lost it all he will run. with all the money he has saved without her knowing watch this space when he will sell his story to the highest bidder and then she will know what he is like for real

I will not shop in Iceland whilst Kerry Katona is fronting it. Hell would freeze over before I gave a penny of my hard earned cash to her and her hanger-on. Even my 87 year old mother-in-law walks half a mile extra to get to Morrisons rather than shop in Iceland. I wonder just how much Iceland are losing because they still continue to contract her and how much they would gain if they ditched her. Mind you, each to their own, maybe Iceland are quite happy for their brand to be associated with chavs.
By Margaret. Posted March 1 2009 at 10:49 AM.
Maybe once the money and cars have gone, that leech of a husband will get out of her life and she can start again.
By James. Posted March 1 2009 at 10:37 AM.
do they not understand that 1.5 million a year is a lot of money. i would never go to iceland to give her money!

"Decided not to shop at Iceland anymore.Marketing/PR people havent a clue.No decent mother would aspire to being like this woman."
By Marie Farrolly. Posted March 1 2009 at 8:27 AM.
Marie, I think you'll find no decent mother would shop at Iceland anyway.

By Marie Farrolly. Posted March 1 2009 at 8:27 AM.
am i missing something here ?!? if she still owes the taxman £82k how come they're still swanning round in £100k's worth of cars ?!!? Love the line from the gold-digging Crofts mate 'mark is gutted' ! I bet he is - better find some other thick , desperate celeb to ponce off now eh Mark ?
By Dan. Posted March 1 2009 at 8:21 AM.
Oh dear, my heart bleeds, now she is only earning £250,000 per year??? How will she manage?? Wake up and learn, if you cannot afford you do not buy - simple. By the way, it will take me around 10 years to earn what you now earn Kerry.
I would not step foot into Iceland if it was the last shop on earth due to the fact they continue to use Kerry as a so called role model.
By Wendy Murray. Posted March 1 2009 at 8:05 AM.
i emailed iceland and told them i shopped with them inspite of her not because of her and got a blunt email back saying she represents a hard working woman going through tough times and they were fully behind her, no need to say if thats thats the way they treat a customer its one customer less, i can think of more deserving women than her she need to grow up and live in the real world
By jackie. Posted March 1 2009 at 7:25 AM.
Iceland are losing money by having her as thier "face" as I am another person who will not shop at Iceland to feed her greed!
GET RID ICELAND AND WE WILL ALL COME BACK!!
By Gill. Posted March 1 2009 at 7:48 AM.
I can't stand her or her money grabbing husband i'm glad she has been brought down a peg or two and as for Icland i won't be spending another penny in there until they get rid of her and i know loads of people that feel the same so come more Iceland get it sorted!!!!!
By Julie. Posted March 1 2009 at 7:19 AM.
dear kerry wake up out of your blinkered life and realise that your so called excuse for a husband is only in it for one thing your money. ask yourself before you meet him you had everything, money,showbiz freinds ,good income, and now what have you got since he came in to your life. no money ,tax man at your door aswell as the repo man no showbiz mates or any mates since that control freak took over your life. kerry wake up before you lose your kids next is he really worth it???
By terry. Posted March 1 2009 at 7:17 AM.
I used to shop at Iceland, but stopped due to the fact that I objected to my money financing the likes of Kerry Katona and Mark Croft. I know other people who have done the same. If she represents family life in the UK........... Why on earth do Iceland continue to use her in their advertisements to represent mothers? It does their reputation no good whatsoever!!
By Ann. Posted March 1 2009 at 6:43 AM.
Who really cares - there are hard working folks who have had the roof removed from over their heads because they can't afford mortage payments, let alone have flash cars. Boo hoo so she hasn't got 10 cars anymore. They are pathatic.
By Sharon. Posted March 1 2009 at 6:36 AM.
i haven't seen so many cars. they've must of changed cars every few months- footballers don't even do that. they've had all cars under the sun.
changing cars so frequently means cars loose money quickly whilst you are increasing money each time you change. 1.5 million is alot of money for a year but she assumed that would be every year which is very foolish. if i was her i'd rather invest in a plusher house. 800,000 isn't top end. not many houses in that bracket would have as many cars as they have had.
she must of been led by the greedy husband who spends her cash.
i don't know how they can change cars so frequently.
By dennis. Posted March 1 2009 at 5:15 AM.
Her life only started to spiral out of control when she met that money grabbing **** and who in their right minds needs a fleet of top of the range cars, you can only drive one at once.
By Trisha. Posted March 1 2009 at 4:51 AM.
I don't understand. if they are having so much trouble, why aren't they down to one cheaper car and renting a smaller place.... didn't she just have surgery too???? i do not earn as much as her and i seem to be in a much better financial situation. maybe it's time to make some SACRIFICES.
By Megan. Posted March 1 2009 at 1:30 AM.
why o why dose icland not find a new hard working family, who may have one or two parents just been made unemployed ,put some friendly and fun back into your ads,, round our place the kids call iceland CHAVLAND ..

At last about time she was put in the real world, my partner lost his factory we lost every thing, i work at times a sixty hour week and support two adults with special needs,
By Elaine . Posted March 1 2009 at 12:23 AM.
Let Iceland know that I will star in their ads for £150,000 to help them in these troubled times. As added value I will even help them out in-store on some days when the going gets tough!
