Monte Carlo Jan 60. Ozanne/Gilmour. Gp1. Retd.
Circuit of Ireland Apr 60. Hiam/Ambrose. Retd.
Coupe des Alpes Jun 60. Jones/James. Retd. - accident. New car?
RAC Nov 60. Seigle-Morris/Elford. 6th.
Monte Carlo Jan 61. Jones/Garnier. Retd. New car?
Tulip May 61. Seigle-Morris/Elford. 23rd.

Did Elford turn it into his race 850?
The 60 RAC is widely considered the best ever 850 International rally result. Just as well, given the retirement record of this one...

Elford did race it and put his number plate on it , VV30. As a race car the chances of it surviving the mid 1960s are sadly minimal.
