WEST YORKSHIRE PTE, which has been advertising for a deputy director-general, at £24,639 a year, for "a vigorous but cost-effective public transport service", apparently does not expect him to use it. He is to be given a car.
The authority could, of course, have followed the example of a Leyland dealer near Heathrow and baited the hook with free trips in Concorde. These are graded according to the cost of the vehicle purchased.
The buyer of a large lorry could look for a flight to Cairo and a tour of the Pyramids, which is even better than a bu ride around Yorkshire.
