    In (partial) answer to Julian’s thoughts  ….. GDPR now makes it very difficult to keep lists and distribute information but, by my reckoning, there are at least 34 Six-owning TOC members.

    I sent an initial introductory e-mail to 32 TOC members whom I believed to be 6 owners advising them that there is now a section of the Forum dedicated to 6-Cylinder matters.

    Twenty-one of those have UK addresses.  Of the other eleven, three are in Australia, one in Belgium, three in the Netherlands, two in New Zealand, one in Portugal and one in Uganda.  I know one other UK member who definitely has a French-built car but I have no e-mail address for him and  if I have missed any others I shall be very pleased to receive their details.

    I also copied the message to one member in the United States who does not have a car but I know he does have a very keen interest in the model.

    I am also aware of several other UK-based Sixes that are not owned by TOC members.

     

    As a personal initiative, I intend to create a record of all the Sixes I can find in the TOC plus any other UK based vehicles.  I believe the contact information alone could be of benefit to owners at some time sooner or later.

    However, as I said above, GDPR is making such information difficult to gather and possibly “dangerous” to hold so I do not want any responsibility for my list to fall on the TOC.  My next step will be to write once more to the 32 – this time as an individual – and ask if they are willing for me to add their details to my record which I shall keep on my PC in a password-protected file accessible to me alone and with the undertaking that nobody’s information will ever be divulged to any other person without their consent.
