A three-year-old boy went on his parents' computer - and bought a £9,000 car.

Jack Neal made a successful bid for the Barbie pink Nissan Figaro on eBay.

Jack's parents, Rachel and dad John, found out about the car when they got a message from the internet auction site to congratulate them.

According to The Sun Rachel, 36, said: "We couldn't understand. So we checked and saw it was a Barbie pink car which we'd bought for £8,999.99."

Rachel, of Sleaford, Lincs, says Jack was able to log on to her eBay account as she left her password in her computer.

She added: "Jack's a real whiz - he's been able to log on since he was two."

Dad John phoned the seller and explained the error.
