For those who are not aware, Roy Axe the Chief of the design department at Rootes from the 'Arrow' era onwards died last week aged 73 of cancer. He spent the last ten years of his life in Florida.
Most everyone on this forum will have owned at least one of the cars he designed, but probably more, as he was head hunted by Austin Rover after Chrysler sold out to Peugueot. At Rover he headed the design team from the early eighties right through to the end of the 90's.
An autobiography he had completed before his death is to be released later this year.
