The company was renamed ''Leyland Motors'' in 1907. In 1919 Spurrier's father, another Henry, took charge of the company. Spurrier (Henry III) was educated at Repton School, and started working life as an apprentice in his grandfather's firm. During World War I he was a pilot lieutenant with the Royal Flying Corps, and served in Mesopotamia and India.〔 Immediately after the war Spurrier involved himself in car development, working with the chief engineer at ''Leyland Motors'', J.G. Parry-Thomas and with his assistant Reid Railton. They produced a luxury touring car the Leyland Eight, with which they intended to compete with Rolls-Royce. It was exhibited at the 1920 London motor show, only eight however, were ever built. After his father's death, Spurrier progressed to become Managing Director of ''Leyland Motors'' in 1949. Spurrier was knighted in 1955. Under his leadership ''Leyland Motors'' acquired Standard Triumph in 1961 and Associated Commercial Vehicles, the parent company of major rivals AEC in 1962, the newly enlarged company became the ''Leyland Motor Corporation'' (LMC), and a car producer once again. Spurrier retired in 1963 and died twelve months later in June 1964.〔Obituary, Sir Henry Spurrier, ''The Times'', Friday, Jun 19, 1964; pg. 17; Issue 56042〕 Donald Stokes, his appointed successor, originally a Leyland student apprentice and managing director of Leyland Motors Limited since 1962 was to take his place as chairman in 1966. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Henry Spurrier」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
