TARTAN BANGER

A DIE-HARD Scotland fan is set to embark on an epic 2000-mile drive to Germany in a banger he bought online for £400.

Scott Miller, who travels with the Tartan Army to both home and away games, decided he wanted to do something to mark the occasion after Scotland qualified for Euro 2024 last year.

After discussing some wacky ideas with his pals, the 34-year-old - from Brora in Sutherland headed onto Facebook Marketplace and spotted a battered old 2008 Volvo S40 being advertised.

After agreeing a price, the mechanic picked up the old motor in December and quickly got to work making it roadworthy, before giving it a tartan makeover.

It is also decked out with Saltires, Irn-Bru badges and even a "Hand of God, Diego Maradona legend" sticker.
