As we enter the New Year, I hope you will enjoy seeing some of my recent writings which have appeared on my social platforms LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram.
Also, this year will see the publication of my book, The Past and The Spurious – The Case of Legitimacy in Historic Cars.
Best wishes
Paul
The WhiteWebbs Museum of Transport is a gem in Crews Hill, north of London.
It is a pleasure to be able to support their Stirling Moss feature with the loan of these cars.
The museum is open on Tuesdays and the last Sunday of the month – and it is very well worth every moment of a visit!

Here is a reminder of how things used to be – Maseratis at Silverstone in 1949.

Maria Teresa de Filippis about to start the 1958 Belgian Grand Prix at Spa Francorchamps in her Maserati 250F.
Maria was the first female driver to compete in a Formula One Grand Prix. She also competed in the Portuguese Grand Prix later that year.

The 3 Litre TT participated in a number of the charitable events of Christmas, but here is a reminder of summer racing.
Bentleys of the WO period feature in several ways in my new book ‘The Past and the Spurious – The Case of Legitimacy in Historic Cars’, due out shortly.
