Nikolai Tishchenko spent millions of hryvnia on expensive cars

The People's Deputy registered the car not only to his wife, but also to the driver and manager.

Politics and luxury often go side by side, and the case of Nikolai Tishchenko is a prime example of this. The famous Ukrainian politician and former restaurateur attracted public attention not only for his activities in parliament and numerous scandals, but also for his expensive cars.

In this material we will look at the vehicle fleet of the odious people's deputy, the cost of which is millions of hryvnia. Some of these cars are officially owned by Tishchenko, others are registered in the people’s deputy’s inner circle.

What's in the declaration?

First, let's look at what cars the people's representative officially owns. Thus, according to the declaration for 2023, Nikolai Tishchenko owns a 2017 Mercedes-Benz E400 passenger car (registered to his wife). This is a pretty expensive car. A premium sedan of the same year of manufacture, depending on the configuration, can be purchased for 32-45 thousand dollars in used condition.

Tishchenko himself officially only owns a 2018 Mercedes-Benz S400. This is another luxury car, twice the price of my wife's. Depending on the configuration and condition, you cannot buy such a car now for less than 60 thousand dollars, even with high mileage. However, the people's deputy points out that he purchased it for 60 thousand euros. Although at launch, in 2018, the car definitely cost at least 89 thousand.

No less interesting is the 2021 Mercedes-Benz EQV, owned by a certain Pyotr Orlov (we’ll tell you later what his relation to the people’s deputy is). He provided a minibus worth about 80 thousand dollars for free use to Nikolai Tishchenko and his wife Alla Baranovskaya.

But, according to Bihus Info, there are at least 2 such minibuses in the surroundings, and possibly even in Tishchenko’s ownership. One of them is from 2016, registered to Sergei Vakalchuk. He became its owner in the summer of 2022. This is manager Tishchenko, with whom they have been doing business together for more than 20 years. It was Vakalchuk who ran his restaurant Velor.

This is a premium car with tuning, exciting wheels, and a luxurious interior. Photos of this car repeatedly appeared in photos on social networks of Tishchenko and his wife.

The 2021 Mercedes V-Class appeared with Peter Orlov in 2023. This man works as a driver for Tishchenko. The classic scheme is to transfer property to people close to you.
