Josef,
There were at least a couple of cars with reg plate xxx DON which were owned by
Healey and used for demos etc. Red Don is still or was last time I saw it in the
UK in private hands. It's actually mentioned in the piece at
http://www.sportscarmarket.com/Profiles/2009/July/English/
It's fairly well known so I am surprised that other listers haven't commented.
I can definitely confirm that Red Don was the publicity car for the Autocar
Test. I seem to recall that I have seen a picture of Donald Healey with Red
somewhere, but that doesn't mean that he used it privately either.
