1961 Ashley 1172
Registration No. 4932 RO
It was in June 2018 that I first heard of this car.
I had a contact via my website's Contact page with the following message:
Ivor
I have some B&W photos of an Ashley 1172 Reg 4932 RO
Unfortunately I have lost the negs.
A friend and I towed it back from Beds to B'ham behind my mini in
1969
He paid £30 or £50 for it, it had only been used for Silverstone and didn't have a cooling fan so always boiled at traffic lights.
I do not know what became of it later.

I naturally replied with a barrage of questions about the car, as I do, also begging for the photo's to be scanned and sent to me for use in this webpage.
I'm glad to say that I didn't scare Bob off infact I got an email the next day with the photo's all scanned and this additional
information on the Ashley 1172 Roadster:
Hello, I have scanned photos (at 300 dpi may need to reduce them to send via e-mail).
The Ashley was Red with Black hard top interchangeable with a separate windscreen, it had twin downdraft carbs (don't remember make but probably from Ford) fitted to side valve engine (I think!).
My friend only used it on the road. Have not got his contact details I'm afraid.

This is the only information I have on this Ashley and as it was back in the late 1960's and it doesn't appear to have made it onto the
DVLA eDatabase in the late 1970's.
