Cash-strapped Katie Price has removed her pink "Barbie Jeep" advertisement on auction website Ebay after a car dealership was swamped with online abuse.

The 40-year-old former glamour model put her shocking pink Suzuki Vitara up for sale yesterday with a starting price of £595. But bids rocketed to £66,000.

A source told The Mirror: "We had to remove it because of all the calls and messages we had been getting. It's still not sold."

It was last reported there were 206 bids. 

Earlier this month, the reality TV star, who lives in Horsham, was slapped with a three-month driving ban and must pay a £1,100 fine for driving while disqualified.

The Argus:

She wrote on Instagram to her 1.9 million followers: "So now I’m banned from driving the cars are going. This one is on Ebay 254073076749.

"When I get my licence back, new car, fresh start.

"Don't forget I am selling my pink Jeep on Ebay now I'm banned from driving.

"I will also meet you to sign the car and do a picture too. So sad, I love my car."
