Le Mans Heroes // DB3S & Norwood P4 | SCD Member Rides

Back in the summer we spent a day filming and driving these two legendary Le Mans cars. Both owned by collector and SCD member Roland Duce. We have an original DB3S and the next best thing to a Ferrari P4 - a Norwood Racing P4.
We later met up with Roland who tells the story about how he came to own each car and his passion for Le Mans, what they are like to live with and drive and some of the fantastic adventures he has been on across the world in the cars.

Would sit and listen to this gentleman for a whole evening easily. 👌

[@scd]

He’s fascinating and we’re so appreciative that he’s willing to share his insights and enthusiasm with us all

[@djtimodj]

We would love to sit with Roland and film with him all evening but he's an extremely busy guy! If we're lucky we might get another day with him to cover another automotive legend!

[@bandgeeklee82]

This gent really has had the most amazing life!

[@scd]

He has and tells the story so well. Thanks for watching

[@PaddyMcQueen]

I'm actually crying... this is my Dream...! I love this car! Best video of the last 20 years

[@scd]

Wow Paddy that is quite the compliment! Thanks for watching and commenting, pleased you enjoyed it

[@PaddyMcQueen]

I Will Call you when I Will get mine for sure!

[@Jamesduce]

Paddy McQueen if you’re ever in the Midlands, England let us know! 👀 Great to hear you share the emotion 👏🏼

[@4SmokingTailpipes]

By far the most gripping and wonderful video I have seen in a long time. I could listen to Roland for hours. What a fantastic chap. Well done to you all, well done indeed. Captivated throughout!!

[@djtimodj]

🙏🙏🙏😀😀

[@Jamesduce]

👍🏼😁

[@scd]

Well said Rob! Roland is an exceptional individual and not many people gets such pleasure from using and sharing these iconic machines!

[@DezDye]

It's great to see this car again and that it's being well cared for. When this Norwood P4 was being built I basically started an unpaid part time apprenticeship (1996) at Norwood Autocraft. I was a pretty good shade tree mechanic at 25 but over several years learned the art of fabrication, car building and becoming a crew member for the inhouse racing projects. I did not work on this Norwood P4 but did observe it going together and being started for the first time. I never had the opportunity to drive it but rode in it several times as it was driven it to a couple of Dallas car shows. It was one of the most memeral vehicles I have ever rode in and I rode in and drove a lot of unique cars at Norwood's from 1996-2002. It's a very raw car and tends to ping all of your senses right off the charts! I gained a great amount of experience quickly that I could not have garnered at to many other shops. I have to give many thanks to Bob Norwood, Tom Stephens and James Patterson for their knowledge past on to me.

[@Pulsonar]

Really nice anecdote, I can tell this branch of the automotive world is close to your heart.

[@JasonJPWimages]

What a pair of beautiful cars & what a amazing chap Roland is 😊👍

[@scd]

Such a special and iconic pair of cars! Definitely in the best hands too

[@jessicamorris4415]

That P4 looks stunning!! The sound is scary!!

[@Jamesduce]

🙌🏼

[@scd]

It looks unreal on the road and needs to be heard to be believed!!!

[@kimi88cz]

What a lovely chap!

[@scd]

He really is! 🙌

[@chrisdooley6468]

Montana plates lol. If anyone doesn’t know that’s one of those states where you can cheaply register and insure very expensive cars.

[@jessicamorris4415]

Roland did mention his place in Montana was almost solely for that purpose :p

[@Jamesduce]

Jessica Morris 👍🏼😁

Chris Dooley 👀👀🏁🙌

[@polystictus]

I had a motorcycle registered there and a car in Oregon.

[@DriversSeatReview]

So cool

[@scd]

Thanks for watching 🙌

[@CarObsessed123]

Roland is a legend!

[@scd]

He is 🙌🙌

[@CharlieBeveridge]

I think the P4 is the most beautiful car built so far. Especially in Berlinetta form. I also love that the originals are ghosts...

[@scd]

You’re so right there! The mysterious P4

[@Autoholicqld]

What a wonderful man to listen too. Thank you

[@Kolinu2]

So interesting listening to Roland's fascinating life with these fabulous cars.

Awesomeness, good job lads. Living the dream. If you need any volunteers :P :P met Roland at a few events, had a great chat about his 275. Lovely chap & lovely cars.

[@Jamesduce]

Nice to hear! Can you remember which events? We did a video with SCD on the 275, give it a watch if you haven’t already

[@scd]

Chris Dorgan haha when he offered we were like 😳😳😳🤯 thanks for watching mate

[@ChrisDorgan]

Car Obsessed I think the first time we chatted and spoke about the 275 was at CarFest North a few years ago since then it’s been random events over the years we’ve both been at with SCD. Will check out, thanks 😜

[@waynemarlow8157]

Absolutely wonderful video! Stunning cars and what a wonderful man! True enthusiast! That DB3S is a wonder!

[@Pulsonar]

10:30 The Aston engine sounds gorgeous and typically old school thoroughbred. Then the Norwood blazes by brutally, with all the fire of Hades, but sounds just as gorgeous and purposeful.

[@DIRBert]

Amazing

Enzo was wrong about the most beautiful car ever made. Surely it's the P4?

[@scd]

You would of thought so ?

PP FERRRARI;No pedro!!!

[@andyjohnson4767]

That information is not correct, 4 x P4's were built, 3 still exist today, 1 in France, Germany and USA

[@kikoelargento9905]

A real caraholic gentleman, not like the most of the arabs

[@Mr037rally]

Why oh why have you spoiled the beginning with that stupid use of music drowning the P4 out!!??

[@scd]

Sorry John. We will be releasing a pure sound version too

[@peterbowler7134]

Having Music on this is plain dumb
