Glasgow City Council auction off Rolls-Royce donated by Sir Boyd Tunnock

A Rolls-Royce that was donated to Glasgow City Council in 2018 has been sold.

The luxury car was put up for auction earlier this year and fetched £105,000. The proceeds from the sale will go towards helping young people in the city enter the Duke of Edinburgh awards.

Sir Boyd Tunnock, who owns the Tunnock's biscuit business, said he wanted to do a "good thing" for the city when he donated the car. Eva Bolander, Lord Provost at the time, said she believed the car would help Glasgow to "show its best face".
