[TR] The List is Less Busy These Days

[John Macartney]

I suppose the Healey widow driver could be forgiven? After all, the German Engine Factory has owned the Rolls Royce car division for some while and its current Deutsche Blokhaus saloon also has a GEF V12 engine. One wonders if it’s a sleeved down variant of the inverted V12 of the Messerschmitt BF109E but now rotated by 180deg?
