Actress Leigh Arnold is reportedly set to hand back the keys to her free Fiat 500 car this week, saying she is no longer comfortable driving a free car.
According to The Herald, the former star of 'The Clinic', has been a brand ambassador for the company for the past three years and claims it was a mutual decision between her and Fiat to terminate the contract.
Amy Huberman has reportedly just taken delivery of the latest version of the 500, but Leigh insists that she feels it is her responsibility to plough money back into the economy, given the dire state of the country's financial situation at present.
Leigh will return her free car before the end of the week and is now looking forward to buying her own.
Speaking to the paper she said: "Basically, we had a chat a couple of weeks ago and discussed it and I told them that I had decided to go on my own. I wanted to get a car that I had paid for completely out of my own money.
"I think it's just not really acceptable at the moment to be accepting free things when everyone is struggling and we should really try and support our own and buy Irish products in particular," she added.
