Borrowing a second hand SS Jaguar 100 from Appleyard's showroom, he and an old school pal entered the treacherous 2000 mile Alpine Rally, coming 3rd on their first outing in 1947. He went on to win the Cup 3 times in a Jaguar XK120. He had various other rally victories and tried motor racing, actually beating Stirling Moss at Silverstone in 1955.
