In this article, Brian Rollings tells the story of how he researched his family history, discovering his connection with the Lisle family, of Star cars fame, and how he looked for a Star car to buy.  It continues with the story of his own family and their firm Wilton Pressings (later Rollings Holdings) of Birmingham.

I carried out the research on which this story is based from July 1998. I have told the story as the story of my research rather than as a chronological history of the family. It is the story so far.
