This car will be about fifty years old now, thats if it exists? The driver looks like one of the Rootes Scotland employees?
Was this the man who collected Mr McBride ?

I am assuming this is the same car and driver.
Hillman Imp XHS 27 would appear to be a works driven car, it appears on page 57 as the same car and in plate 84 of the book writen by Bob Allan Geoffrey Rootes dream for Linwood.
In that picture a works driver Mr Anderson is holding the door open for a Mr EF McBride who was 77 at that time. He was to be driven to the Rootes Scotland factory at Linwood that morning.
The same car is pictured again on page 62 on plate 96 when Mr McBride is leaving the Imp factory after his visit.
