The Vauxhall Frontera was found near the visitors’ centre at the highest peak in England and Wales on Thursday morning.

The vehicle’s owner, Craig Anthony Williams, 39, from Cheltenham, was charged with dangerous driving and is due in court next week.

Witnesses have said the car found on Thursday had a sign in the windscreen claiming it was to be sold on an internet auction site in aid of the local mountain rescue teams.

Yesterday North Wales Police said a 39-year-old man was arrested on Saturday on suspicion of dangerous driving and causing criminal damage.
