Daily driver condition. Keith hails from Warrington, Cheshire, United Kingdom. Keith's comments. "I was responsible for returning this car to the road in 1997 on behalf of Andrew Turner. Since then the car has lived most of its life at my home and I was virtually the only driver. It was used as a marketing tool for Andrew's company so I had all the pleasure and he paid all the bills!!. When the decision was made to sell the car there was no way that I could let her go to someone other than me so I bought her. Now I have to pay my own bills. I have decided to keep the car as Andrew intended when I first started the project, far from perfect (what 43 year old car would still be perfect) that way I am not frightened to use it and as a member of the Lancashire Automobile Club (founded in 1902)I try to take part in most of their events. Car is now being prepared for its 13th consecutive year of regular use and the car now has a garage to live in for the first time in a long time!!! "
