A more flamboyant and controversial character it would be hard to find.
Keith Schellenberg was capaulted into the news following disputes arising from his ownership of the Isle of Eigg in the Inner Hebrides, during which his 1927 Rolls-Royce Phantom was torched, but there was far more to him than that. A former county rugby player for his beloved Yorkshire, he also stood as an MP, was an Olympic bobsleigher, a powerboat racer, a racing driver and a historic racer – and the long-term owner of the Barnato-Hassan Bentley. He also embarked on several great adventures in vintage Bentleys.
