Full history:

I found in the article the answer to something that has been puzzling for quite a long time.
Indeed, here are the three last DB1 chassis numbers and registration numbers:
AMC/50/13         OPD 51           engine EN4/49/27
AMC/50/14         OPD 52           engine EN4/49/22
AMC/50/15         OPD 53           engine EN4/49/18


In 1950, Lord Chesham, chairman of the RAC wanted to order one 2 litre Sports. He was answered production had ceased but that if he ordered three, the works would do an exception! He only found two friends and that was it... His DB1 was AMC/50/15.
