“In early 1945, as the troops were advancing on Germany, Elizabeth was permitted to join the Auxiliary Territorial Service as a trainee driver.

She registered as No. 230873 Second Subaltern Elizabeth Alexandra Mary, and began her training in driving and vehicle mechanics at the No. 1 Mechanical Transport Training Centre in Aldershot. The Princess had a lot to learn. On her first day, 23 March, at the Practical Mechanics lesson, she was shown how to handle a spanner. Asked if she had ever held one before, she looked slightly surprised, giggled slightly, and said ‘No! Never.’”

BERTIE IS DRIVING! :)

Also, the original car --a black 1939 Daimler DB18 Drophead Coupé-- is still in existence today and from what I have read, is well-loved and looked after by its current owner!
