A classic car saved from being seized by the Nazis on the Channel Islands after it was hidden in a shed by a wealthy widow is to go on display for the first time. Germans stationed on the island had banned all cars for private use and they were seized and moved to France. The Nazis kept records and knew she had a car and arrived at her property to try and requisition it - but after searches left empty-handed. Mr. Heaume personally knew the defiant Mrs. Gacon - and says she kept herself and neighbors updated on allied progress throughout the war. Le Tissier kept the car for a year before selling it on to Michael Marshall, former owner of the Manor Hotel.
