Most of us have owned quite a number of cars from various backgrounds. Do any of them have a famous, interesting or shady past?
(Royalty, bank job, owned by Lord Lucan?).

My old guards red 944 was owned by a "Simon Fuller" in London in the 80's. Isn't he some big name in pop music management? Or just a common name .... wink

I was being told last night of a chap I know who has a ford racing puma that is one of two that were supposedly nicked from a ford establishment somwhere, before the car was even released. 'Apparently' they both resurfaced a few years after they were nicked with cloned vin plates etc on them.
Any frp specialists on here care to enlighten me to the veracity of this (fishy smelling) tale?
