What you needed was this one John, a lovely D Type which was road legal (you will remember that cars were driven to the racing and driven home again if not badly damaged) at one time driven by Jim Clark with the Border Reivers team and then owned by a friend of mine Alan Ensoll who drove it to his Garage Business nearly every day mainly in the Summer. He also raced the car at weekends, unfortunately it was sold due to the Torrey Canyon disaster as he was a name at Lloyds and suffered losses, he was one of the syndicate.
The car still exists and I believe is now worth around £8million due to its provenance, at the time I believe Alan paid less than a £1,000 for it.
