    That is correct TT garage owned by Leslie hawthorn tuned and sold performance cars while son Mike carved out a race career .

    I think we both know whom would have created the connection of the car to Mike ...an ex owner who for some reason never raced in UK historics !

    Indeed. I lived near Farnham for a time and visited all the Hawthorn locations. The tragedy of the period - young men dead before their time.

    As you would know Mike only had 2 or 3 years of life left before he was killed .

    He was offered a drive with Mercedes Benz is reply was along ...Do you think I'd drive for you after what you did in WW2..
