Tony Pond was a true gentleman and an incredible driver. He was a friend of our family and I was very fortunate to have spent many hours in is company. As much a he enjoyed rallying and racing, he also enjoyed developing cars, the Metro 6R4 being one of them.
First met Tony when I was marshalling on the 1974 Burmah, which he won. Met him various times over the years, Scottishes, RAC's, Manx etc, invariably marking his time card! An absolute gentleman and a joy to have even a short conversation with. Treasured memory of him? Driving that works TR7, awseome!!!
Tony Pond, what a gentleman! Never up himself, always happy go lucky. World rally car rules ruined rallying forever. Bring back homologation, RWD and 'analogue' cars. Know wonder classic rallying is massively popular nowadays. Back in those days you could buy every one of these cars from a showroom, or create one yourself from bits from a scrappy!
I remember Pond back in the day Christ he was a wild man with everything he drove, he seemed to be able to drive anything fast, who’d even attempt to rally one of those big ole Rover SDI’s? Definitely a superstar.
