Mystery of mangled car
Motorists and members of the public have spotted the dark blue Renault on the grass at the bottom corner of Glasgow Road with severe damage to the driver side door and wheel.
Police confirmed that the vehicle had been involved in a road traffic accident at New Year but that there was no suggestion of foul play or alcohol having been involved in the incident.
