Just Car boss refuels

Just Car Clinics chief executive Barry Whittles has topped up his stake in the car accident repair chain, spending £12,000 on shares.

He took 90,115 at 13.46p and now has more than 2m, or about 15.72% of the company.

Just Car Clinics announced last month that it is planning to cancel its listing on AIM after concluding that the benefits do not justify the costs and management time.
