MB Enthusiast
Playing with scalextric, watching rallycross and saloon car racing on Grandstand. My elder brothers (10yrs older) copies of Custom Car, - all had a huge impact, and started a love of cars from an early age. My brother (Toolmaker at Fords) was always tinkering with cars, (he repainted a pale green Mini Cooper deep maroon, and spray tinted the windows dark.... very mid 70s “custom” (Sacralige now!) he moved on through hot Anglia to a Mk 2 Jag, whenever he was working on a car I wasn’t far away handing him the spanner’s or washing them just for fun.
