He had been ill for a long time, I wonder if C-19 hastened his passing? RIP Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed!

Simply his illness from what I have read.......

Saw a cracking quote which summed up him and the era he found fame......... "when we won races yoy met girls, now you thank Vodaphone"

Mr. Green

Sad news, I saw him at the Goodwood Revival a few years ago, a real racing driver and Gentleman.

Nice read Thumbs Up

I knew a little about the Portugal incident but not the full details. I wonder many many modern drivers would do the same?

Seen him at a lot of events over the years, always seemed to have time for fans. I was lucky enough to see his last semi-competitive drive in the Le Mans Legends race before the 24 hrs a few years ago. 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS
