Scots homeowner in limbo after flat flooded with raw sewage but can't be fixed due to abandoned Aston Martin

A devastated Scottish homeowner has shared how his flat has been flooded with rancid raw sewage - but said engineers can't fix the problem because of an abandoned Aston Martin.

Richard Holligan, 47, bought his three-bedroom flat in April this year but said his dream home in Glasgow has turned into a nightmare after sewage poured into his hall and bathroom. Communications manager Richard said the stench in his ground floor flat became so bad he was forced to draft in professional cleaners.

A broken outflow pipe is causing the flooding - but workers are unable to remedy the issue because a classic Aston Martin is parked in their way. He is pleading with the owner of the 1970s DBS model car to come forward and remove it before his flat floods again.
