Just 35 miles away from the fabled Brooklands race circuit where it showed its potential eight decades ago by sprinting its way into the record books, Sir Henry ‘Tim’ Birkin’s dramatic 4½ Litre Supercharged ‘Blower’ single seat racing machine was sold for a price of £4.5 million during an auction by Bonhams at the Goodwood Festival of Speed 2012.
