Retro nostalgia 1981: Car comp winner can’t yet drive
Alan (18) of Osborne Gardens, Falkirk, is still a learner driver but that did not stop him scooping the top prize in a nationwide competition run by Burton’s the Tailors.

Hide AdAlan, a lab technician at BP Oils, Grangemouth, said: ‘‘It’s really magic. I can still hardly believe it! Some youngsters start off with a wee banger. I’m lucky I’ll have this beauty to drive around in. It’s a brilliant car.’’
Alan won a digital watch in Burton’s ‘‘Race into Spring’’ promotion and his luck continued when he won the car.
