David Arnold Stuart Plastow (born 9 May 1932) KBE FRSA was the chairman of the UK's Medical Research Council 1990–1998. He became an automobile executive who filled a series of high level appointments in the UK. Between 1958 and 1980 he worked for Rolls-Royce Motors (including its predecessor and successor companies). He was Chairman of the company between 1972 and 1980. He has subsequently developed a variety of industry directorships and other appointments. ==Career== Plastow was born in Grimsby. He joined Vauxhall Motors Limited in 1950 as an apprentice, and within seven years had worked his way up to the position of sales manager.〔 In 1958 he switched to Rolls-Royce where he worked on the commercial side of the company for the Scotland and North of England region of what was then the automobile division of a company concentrating on aero-engine production.〔 In 1968, now the senior sales director, he joined the board with responsibility for the overall distribution of automobiles.〔 Three years later, in 1971, Rolls-Royce Limited went into liquidation and was for a period nationalised. The financial problems were blamed on the aero-engine division, however, and at the start of 1971 Plastow, from the automobile division, replaced Geoffrey Fawn as managing director of the Rolls-Royce Motor Car Division, while Fawn retained a senior position within the Aero Engine Division. When Rolls-Royce Motors was established as a separate entity in 1972, Plastow became its chairman. He became a director of Vickers plc in 1975, and remained a Vickers director after the Rolls- Royce business was acquired by Vickers in 1980. From 1990 to 1998 he was the chairman of the Medical Research Council.〔
