Prince Philip’s first car—a 1935 Standard Nine immortalized at the Galle Face Hotel in Colombo. Bought for 12 pounds when he was nineteen and stationed in Sri Lanka during WWII. Hotel staffer told me Philip asked about it on royal visits to the island. #HistoryNerd 🇱🇰 https://t.co/KQanXBelw4 — PolitiTweet.org
