The Enemy's Tom Clarke Buys Jaguar To Honour Grandad

The Enemy’s Tom Clarke has bought a Jaguar car in honour of his late Grandad, who used to work for the car company.

The singer said the E-Type car and a flat had been his only expensive buys since the Coventry band found fame last year.

“I didn’t get it to be flash. It was because in 1972 my Grandad used to work in Jaguar’s Brown’s Lane plant in Coventry and I wanted a car he’d worked on,” Clarke told The Sun newspaper.

“He’s dead now but whenever I look at the car I think of him.”

The Enemy’s number one debut album ‘We’ll Live And Die In These Towns’ was inspired by the demise of car companies in the Midlands.

Their second effort, ‘Music For The People’, is out later this month.
