How it became David’s

I bought Roary in Surrey back in 2013.

I'd owned an early 3-litre manual S-Type in British Racing Green years before, and I'd always regretted selling it. When the chance came to own another, I couldn't resist. I've had this car for a long time now, and with the help of my Dad and good friend Andy, the car is still on the road today.

With David since July 2013

2019 to 2024, barely driven: laid up. It was unused for a couple of years which lead to a lengthy recommission

Before David

Registered in Germany originally. Five previous owners before me.

These days

I don't drive it anywhere near as often as I'd like, but we do manage to take him out occasionally.

What David loves

“That V8 engine and classic looks”
