Very sad news indeed, I always looked forward to meeting up with Dave at the Internationals and Spares days. He was also a TR6 registrar for his sins for a few years.

RIP Dave and condolences to his wife Maria and to his family.

Sad news. We have lost a very dear TR friend. Dave came to the 1992 Euromeeting in Houthalen (Belgium) & thereafter we drove together to the other Euromeetings. Our sincere condolences to Maria & family.

Yes I got a message about this through the Spanish TR group, very sad as he was a good friend for many years and used to ring me regularly for advice about various TR stuff, sincere condolences to Maria.

This news came as a great surprise not only to myself but several others who rang me to tell me the sad news of Dave's passing. 

Dave became something of a legend after his escapades on one of the lakes tours when he rolled a new land rover he had borrowed  for the weekend while  his navigation abilities came under close scrutiny when  instead of driving west out of Berlin he drove east and didn't realise his mistake until he came to Poland! 

 With his famous number plate ATR6 OK, his car always attracted a lot of attention.  Even  though he moved to Spain  he would often be seen a TR meetings and at the NEC shows.  A thoroughly decent chap, our thoughts are now with Maria and his family.  RiP Dave.

I too am saddened to hear this news. I bought COV from Dave a way back. He brought it over from Spain on the ferry and met me at the docks in Plymouth. I will never forget that day as it rained like it had never rained before.

My sincere condolences to his family and friends.

Rodders.
