LETTER: Mayor should be driven round in Ford Ka or Nissan Micra
So I would like to ask if it is absolutely necessary to be driven around in a luxurious £50,000 German saloon with a £20,000 private number plate?
I suggest something more modest which could also be supplied and serviced by a Burnley dealership rather than one in Blackburn.

The mayor’s car should reflect the achievements of Burnley Council and be performance related. May I suggest a Ford Ka or Nissan Micra.
