Two years... Where has that time gone... :o

Few pics - his old V6 at the CCC X Rally (Burghley House) where it won Best Xantia:

Never worry Franklin, Roger will always live on in our memories :D I'm sure all who had the pleasure to meet and speak to to great man will all agree he's absolutely unforgettable!

Great to see his car so well loved...

Three years... Where that time has gone I don't know... :o

RIP Roger.

Here's a picture of Roger back in the day - a scan from an old Citroenian from 1992..

As most of you know, his old Xantia V6 is now in the very good hands of Steve/Trainman which is great news. :)

Pictured here at the CX, XM and Xantia Rally a few weeks ago (Steve's picture)...

Roger's son, Matthew, and I have recently been giving Roger's Prestige some well deserved TLC after it's spell of hibernation - it will be at the 40th anniversary next year at the CX, XM and Xantia Rally along with the Rally Car too.

Pictured here a few months back prior to a light restoration commencing...
