Sarah Discaya tells Senate of P42-M Rolls-Royce, other luxury cars 'she can't remember'

Contractor Sarah Discaya on Monday faced the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee and was asked about her contracts with the Department of Public Works and Highways, and her collection of luxury cars.

Was it true that she bought the Rolls-Royce because she fancied the umbrella that came with it?

“Sir, yes po.” 

How much was the Rolls-Royce? P42 million came the answer.

Discaya also told the Senate committee the cost of some of the luxury cars she and her husband owned, based on her knowledge.

• One Rolls Royce - P42 million
• One Mercedes Benz G63 - P20 million 
• Two Cadillac Escalade - P11 million (white) and P8 million (black)
• One Chevrolet Suburban - P3 million (used)
• One Range Rover Autobiography - P16 million
• One Range Rover Defender - P7 million
• One Range Rover  Evoque - P5 million

Discaya said that she also owned units GMC, Maybach, and Bentley. 

She said that they had 28 luxury cars.

Told that she had said previously that there were 40, Discaya explained that 28 were considered luxury vehicles. The others, she said, were service vehicles owned by the company.

Pressed by Senate President Pro Tempore Jinggoy Estrada about the other cars in her collection, Discaya said, "I can't remember them all."

Estrada also asked Discaya on why they had such a large number of cars.

”I have four kids that use it all the time."

Prior to entering the construction business, the former Pasig City mayoral candidate said that she worked abroad as a dental receptionist and orthodontic nurse. She said her father and her husband were also contractors.
