Photo Comment

The Castle Motors "gate guardian" since 1989. After arrival at Castle Motors it had been painted in full 111 Squadron markings, but this was very short-lived due to an apparent conflict with the Inland Revenue regarding qualification for tax relief. It was then repainted in the Castle Motors house colours, originally with a red spine and fin/rudder as seen here, which was later replaced with the current yellow/black.
