This 20hp Rolls-Royce, chassis number 'GDK37', was delivered in December 1924 to its first owner, Mrs E M Cordeux, wife of the late Dr R H Cordeaux of Bunny Hall, Nottingham. Following Mrs Cordeux's death, the Bunny Hall estate was sold in 1942. Subsequently the car was associated with one D S Johnson and next with R-REC member J A G Burchall of Theydon Bois, Essex from December 1974. In December 1975 the Rolls-Royce passed to the next owner, Daniel T Brown, and in October 1976 was purchased by Hermione, Lady Colwyn. It remained in the Colwyn family until 2014. Daughter of the grandson of the 3rd Baronet Hoare of Annabella, County Cork, the formidable Hermione pioneered the development of women's ice hockey in the 1920s and was a member of the Oxford Gliding Club in the 1930’s. While in her ownership the Twenty appeared in the 1981 ITV mini-series 'Winston Churchill – The Wilderness Years', starring Robert Hardy as Britain's wartime leader. It also appeared in the 1985/86 London Weekend Television drama series 'Mapp and Lucia' starring Prunella Scales and Geraldine McEwan, serving as Lucia's car in all episodes. From the late 1980s into the early 1990s the Rolls-Royce was kept garaged and mechanically maintained while under Lady Colwyn’s ownership. Upon Lady Colwyn's death the Twenty was inherited by her relative, who fortunately had sound mechanical experience of vintage cars and thus was able to carry out routine maintenance and make minor repairs. More demanding tasks being entrusted to specialists such as overhaul of the Autovac by Brian Thompson. In 2014 the car was sold to its last owner after nearly 40 in the Colwyn family’s ownership.
