Katie Price‘s fiancé Carl Woods has reportedly sold the Range Rover she was caught driving while banned for £20,000.
The mother-of-five, 42, was spotted behind the wheel of the vehicle in March, despite serving her sixth driving ban at the time.
Carl is said to have sold the Range Rover through his company, Bespoke Automotive, for £20,000.

The Sun claims that the former Love Island star flogged it on Auto Trader last month.
MailOnline has contacted Katie’s representative for comment.
In March, Katie was said to have been quizzed by police after she spotted behind the wheel of a Range Rover despite serving her sixth driving ban at the time.
This was the second time she was caught driving while banned – the first time being January 2019.

Driving while disqualified can lead to an unlimited fine and jail time of six months.
Katie’s representative declined to comment when approached by MailOnline at the time.
Katie’s current two-year ban was issued in the autumn of 2019, which she appealed. It was reduced to 18 months.
The former glamour model is said to have since got her driving licence back with a representative for Katie telling The Sun in early April: ‘Katie’s driving licence is due to be reinstated in the next week.’

The reality star has a long history of problems behind the wheel and has been disqualified from driving six times since her first ban back in 2010 for six months.
During her most recent ban alone, she was caught driving while disqualified in January 2019, and had another three months added to her sentence.
The ban was originally issued to Katie after her famous pink Range Rover was involved in a crash in November 2018, after which Katie refused to tell police who had actually been behind the wheel.
Katie was first slapped with a driving ban in 2010 for six months. This was for speeding – 83mph in a 70mph zone in West Sussex.

She was then disqualified for a year in 2012, after failing to respond to two speeding tickets.
Katie reportedly failed to inform police when she received the ticket for breaking the speeding limit in a 50mph limit on the A24 in Dial Post, West Sussex in 2017.
She claimed that she didn’t see a pair of speeding tickets because her mother takes care of the mail.
Katie was ordered to pay a total of £75 and she was slapped with the 12-month driving ban.
In 2018, she was banned for another six months, totting up 12 penalty points on her driver’s license.
During this ban, she was caught driving while disqualified in January 2019, and was given another three months.
A further three months were added to this ban a month after this, when she was convicted of drink-driving the previous October.
The influencer was released by police pending further investigation on October 10 2018 following an alleged five-day bender that ended up with her being arrested for drink-driving after turning up uninvited to her on-off boyfriend’s birthday party.
At the time, Katie was receiving treatment at The Priory and meant to be abstaining from alcohol, but it has since been claimed that she went on a five day bender prior to her drink-drive arrest.
She had reportedly been enjoying Strawberry Daquiris with ex-boyfriend Alex Adderson after fearing the 25-year-old would think she is a ‘boring granny’ if she didn’t let her hair down.
Katie handed herself into police the previous July for driving while on a six-month ban, explaining at the time that she thought her ban was over.
Taking to Instagram, the I’m A Celebrity star admitted that she thought the ban was done – but as soon as she realised it wasn’t confessed her wrongdoing to authorities to avoid a ‘guilty conscience.’
She said at the time: ‘Been on such an emotional rollercoaster the last 6 months and my head has been all over the place, so much so, that I thought my driving ban was up.
‘After driving to [son] Harvey’s hospital appointment I have NOW found out that I don’t get my licence back until 8th August.
‘With this on my conscience I called police and reported myself. I’ve come such a long way and just want easy life now.
‘I have got out of a hole and am finally happy and looking forward to being my old independent self.’
The part-time singer received a £750 fine as well as £200 in costs and a £75 surcharge following her conviction, according to reports.
Katie had previously called her two-year driving ban ‘b*******’ and ‘obscene’ in a YouTube video shared in 2019.
It had come just days after she was charged with withholding the name of the driver following a collision which involved her pink Range Rover in November 2018.
In a video posted to her account, the socialite hit out at police as she claimed officers ‘pull me over to be nosy’ following her fourth ban at the time.
The campaigner – who had pleaded guilty at a hearing in August 2019 – insisted her conviction was down to ‘paperwork’ and revealed she was preparing to appeal against the charge.
Providing her social media subscribers with some background about her ban, Katie began her clip at the time: ‘I’ve been banned now four times from driving, but it’s actually not me driving but paperwork.
‘I was in court yesterday and the lawyers said to the court that I would not be there as I’d be out the country. We proved we’d be out the country, but the judge wasn’t interested in adjourning it.’
The former Loose Women star – who failed to turn up to court because she was abroad – reasoned her ability to drive is vital due to her location, her then 17-year-old son Harvey’s needs (he has since turned 18) and her terminally ill mother Amy.
‘I need to drive and I am going to appeal’, she said. ‘I live in the middle of nowhere, I have a son with disabilities that might need to be rushed to hospital at certain times.
‘My mum is terminally ill and I need to visit my mum. If they’re banning me for two years how do I know my mum is going to be here in two years’ time? I need to be able to get to my mum.
‘It’s obscene that the courts won’t listen just because they banned me before three times, which was also unfair’, the Brighton native elaborated.
Katie went on to claim court letters had been sent to houses in her area as they share the same postcode.
The 2015 CBB winner shared: ‘My post gets moved here, there and everywhere, so at the moment I don’t get all my posts, but I am going to appeal my driving ban.
‘Some people write to me but I don’t even get it on time. It’s got my name and my postcode – but the wrong house.
‘It’s obscene, being banned for two years. Two years is a long time and I don’t deserve it, it’s a load of b*******. Everyone says my pink Range Rover is gone but I still have it, I just don’t drive it.
‘Well, I can’t now because people like the police do pull me over and I’m like “what have I done”, and their attitude is ‘’what’s with the attitude’’ and I’m like “why have you pulled me over?”
‘They just want to be nosyy, they know it’s me, who else has a pink car in the area?’, she added.
Katie did not attend the sentencing hearing on October 10 2019 at Bexley Magistrates Court, claiming she was only due to return to London Gatwick Airport in the morning.
At the time, this was the sixth time Katie has been banned from the roads. Prior to this, she had revealed she was selling her garish £75,000 pink Range Rover and Fiat Ducato horsebox ‘because they get her into trouble’.
Meanwhile, Katie recently got engaged for the eighth time after her partner Carl proposed in April following a whirlwind 10 month relationship.
