Following the death of Mike Sutton his car was left to the RSPB who offered it for sale through
H & H Classic Car Auction in April 2013, where it achieved only £12,320. In August that year it was purchased by Bob Heppell (asking price was £23,950). Bob sold the car to Graeme Williams, son of the late Charlie Williams of Williams & Pritchard fame, at the end of 2018.
