Superb article about Frank Taylor's car in Jaguar Driver magazine November 2002 when he was interviewed by Tony Dudmesh. Excellent detailed history of the car and its various modifications. The owner was using the car is it should be used having driven all over the European Continent during his lengthy ownership.
