J Davy were eventually closed down by the fraud squad after several dodgy financial dealings. They at one point owned the taxi company I work for, a business decision made to sell Cortinas to taxi drivers.

That reminds me that Richard Tompkins who created and owned Green Shield Stamps, decided that as he bought 100’s of Escorts and Cortinas for reps he might as well make money on each one so opened a Ford Dealership in Bedford. He called it Charles King on the assumption there would soon be a King Charles, he died in 1992 so never saw that happen. As his business was almost literally printing money, he couldn’t spend it fast enough, he owned the plate 007 and had it on various Rollers, legend has it that Cubby Broccoli , or least his U.K. production company , offered a blank cheque for it. But he’d never sell.
