Magic 1152 DJ Dave Lee Travis has given away his Cadillac on air as part of a fundraising drive for the station’s charity of choice Cash for Kids.
DLT: car free
DLT parted company with his beloved motor after Magic listeners succeeded in raising £10,000 for the charity, which works to help and support disabled and disadvantaged children.

Worsley’s David Clegg is the man who now finds himself in the driving seat of the classic car after ringing in to DLT’s weekend show. He plans to sell it to pay for the ongoing care of his disabled daughter.

The DJ said of the fundraising initiative: “I know how generous Magic listeners are, so I had no doubt that we would reach the £10,000 target by this weekend.

“I'm delighted with how David has chosen to make use of the car, I can't think of anyone who deserves it more.”
