A Chipping Norton resident has been reunited with a 101-year-old car which he once drove across France.

Murray, who lives at Southerndown Care Home, was "delighted" to receive a visit from the classic Alvis, which was built in Coventry in 1923.

The car, which he owned when he lived in America, has been preserved by his family.

Murray often talks about the car and his trips, so his family decided to surprise him by bringing it to Southerndown for staff and residents to see.

General manager at the care home, Arlene Acuavera, said: "It was lovely to have the classic car here for the day.

"Murray was delighted that it was able to visit us and hasn’t stopped talking about it since."
