A Renfrewshire man has been jailed after he put fake registration plates on a stolen car and drove it from Lochwinnoch to Elderslie as a banned driver.
Brian Mitchell stole a white Seat Ibiza from a driveway in Lochwinnoch’s Parkhill Drive before he went on to ‘reset’ the registration plates.
The 33-year-old, who was disqualified from the roads at the time, was snared when cops viewed CCTV at the Esso garage where Mitchell drove the car to before heading towards Elderslie.
