Re: Sir John Harvey Jones Dies

Great character!!!

Recall his visit to Morgan Cars where IIRC he discovered their obsession with hand craftsmanship even extended to the exclusion of certain electric hand tools in the workshop!

He also found £££££ £Â£Â£Â£Â£'s worth of cars sitting around the site in various stages of production but going nowhere fast.

His opinion was that a waiting list for their product accounted for the company's blase attitude to economic reality and the owners didn't take too kindly to that .......
