The Rolls-Royce Ghost donated to Glasgow City Council in 2018 has been sold for £105,000.

"Officers continually look at the council's overall transport needs, including its fleet of cars and other vehicles," the spokesman said.He added that the lord provost had primarily used other cars in the council's fleet with a "100% Nissan Leaf" his most common option and that there were no plans to replace the Rolls-Royce.
