A Rolls Royce Ghost, worth about £150,000, has been gifted to Glasgow City Council by a mystery donor.

The two-year-old car will replace one of the council's Volkswagen Phaetons that was due to have its lease renewed.

The luxury car, which proudly bears the council's unique 'G0' number-plate, will be used by Lord Provost Eva Bolander and other city representatives for appropriate civic duties.

It will also be used for VIPs who require transportation around the city.

"It's a show-stopping car and a tremendous asset."
