A Donegal man plans to swap his 12 year old banger for a newer model after scooping €20,000 on RTE’s Late Late Show last night.Ryan Tubrudy

Art O’Brien admitted he was still in shock when host Ryan Tubridy called him at home.

The Donegal man guessed St Valentine as the correct answer to last night’s public audience competition teaser.

And he picked up a cool €20,000 in cash for his troubles.

Host Tubridy asked Art if he had any plans to spend some of the €20,000 on.

Art replied “I’m still in shock to be honest. I’m not sure what I’m going to do with it.

“I have a 01 Nissan Micra so I might think about an upgrade.”

Ryan replied that there was probably a very happy car dealer in Co Donegal rubbing his hands already.
