Last year, I went to interview the former Leyland stylist Harris Mann. We were talking Allegros, a topic he will happily expound upon, but he is beginning to take exception to the attitude of the more populist media. To my delight, he recently told a BBC researcher to “get stuffed” (a very un-Harris-like remark) when they wanted him to take part in radio programme about “crap British cars”, so I fear we’ve had his last words on the subject. I don’t blame him: it’s time to find something else to take the Mickey out of.

Velox Redux. Amazing Vauxhall Restoration. The many rebuilds of a Vauxhall Velox owned for nearly 40 years. From a Vauxhall Velox.
