A three-year-old boy used his mother's computer to buy a £9,000 car on the internet auction site eBay.

Jack Neal's parents only discovered their son's successful bid when they received a congratulations message from the website about the Barbie pink Nissan Figaro.

"So we checked and saw it was a Barbie pink car which we'd bought for £8,999. We flew into a panic."

The next morning Jack woke and told his parents: "I've bought a car."

Mrs Neal, of Sleaford, Lincs, said she thought she had left her eBay password in her computer.

She said: "Jack's a whizz on the PC and just pressed all the right buttons."
