Silver SHADO

Following Martin Buckley’s recollections of UFO (Backfire, May), I recently came across a couple of pictures of one of the Alan Mann-built ‘SHADO’ cars that I owned some years ago as a piece of trade. At the moment I can’t find the name of the person to whom I sold it, but I will look in my sales records.

I bought it from Robert Wicken, a Maidstone-based registrationnumber dealer, and it was difficult to get into, uncomfortable to sit in and horrible to drive!
