So often the cars I research come with stories permanently attached. Stories of celebrity ownership or the classic “Fangio drove this car (insert any make) all over Europe.” It is great fun to research these stories but more often than not they are simply not true.

Wherever possible I prefer primary sources, the actual people who owned the car or who were intimately familiar with a particular car.
