It's been a very long time since I last logged in. Sadly I have come with some bad news. Ford Historian, motornetnews owner, motoring journalist and good friend of mine Adrian Ryan sadly passed away on the weekend.
I'm sure many of you have been the recipient of information from Adrian. What he didn't know about Ford (and other makes) really wasn't worth knowing. Adrian was the most giving and lovely person. He will be very sadly missed. RIP Adrian. |

That's extremely sad news... Adrian was a big help to all those interested in the History of Ford and our great models.
His passion for the Blue oval was unquestioned. He has helped me allot over the years with questions on GT Falcons. Deepest condolences to his Family and Friends. R.I.P Adrian.

Sad to hear that. I spoke with him a few times about XAs and XBs and he was always willing to help.
RIP |

I had seen this news but wasn't sure if it was the same man, thanks for letting us know. I can only echo the above sentiments, a real loss.
Condolences to the family and friends left behind. |

Been to his house on a few occasions or should I say "shrine"
Such a pleasant human being with exceptional knowledge on all things motoring. My deepest condolences to his family. R.I.P. Adrian. |

Truly lost for words.
Thankyou kindly for letting us all know. Such a kind, gentle and sharing man. Without Adrian's help over the past 7 years, I would still have many unanswered questions. Such a sad loss. May he rest in peace. |
