Victor Gauntlett - RIP -

....is this true?

Just read the Cropley column in Autocar today, and learned that the erstwhile MD of Aston in the 80's has passed away.

For me, the image of V Gauntlett esq. is inextricably linked to Aston, right or wrong, and I feel that without him at the helm, Aston may not be here now.

I would like to take the opprotunity to pass on my condolences to his family.

Chris
