Just learned that he crashed in a Mini 1275GT. I had one of those. Respect..

He wasn't driving.

Oh. I never had him pegged as a petrol head, hence the surprise. Nice thought though - imagine him now, presenting Top Gear, a bit Quentin Wilson ish

I would hope he'd have still been wearing the sparkly jumpsuits. Although to be honest he was a bit burly for them anyway.

His girlfriend, Gloria Jones, was driving - singer of the classic northern soul (and later covered by soft cell) 'tainted love'
