Yep I have JJ.
You’ve got most of the story reynolds. Ted toleman did live at Gedding near Stowmarket, and when the business went down the tubes he went to S. Africa and supposedly bought a plantation and Gary went out with him. The story is that Gary had pulled into a filling station in his pick up and was held up by some guys who wanted the truck. A gun was put Gary’s head and the rest is history. He was a nice guy and when they were younger they did drive round in RS500 Cossies with special plates ie; TTT222

The number plates were TTT 222 & 222 TTT. Not sure if anyone can remember the VW advert, where they used both number plates?? I went to Garys funeral in Lavenham, very sad day!!
