Certainly will go to the forces board :)

What's interesting is that the car was first registered in Scotland, but the first owner was in Suffolk.

Thanks for the help guys. Off to the forces board, with an age and possibly a regiment as it's quite possible he would have joined his father's regiment.

Titz-Ercal Coke. That's the best yet :D

And in 1881 he's F E Coke, so that's another vote for Ercal.

I wasn't looking for Coke of course, so I didn't find a blooming thing  :(

You guys are unbelievable. I had been told that the car was once owned by..... The Chief Constable of Suffolk. I hadn't even started down that route yet.

If you lot ran the country....

Thanks for all the info and research.
