I lived in the vicinity of EGLK as a youth (70's, early 80's) and well remember the man, and his reputation - often saw him careering around the airfield in the afore-mentioned Gold "Roller", always suited, but never looking anything other than extremely intimidating.
Heard similar stories of people being threatened (once with a shotgun!) for even looking at his aeroplanes.
However, he did bring an awful lot of interesting types to the airfield, in addition to those mentioned I remember the B25's, the ex-IGN B17, the "Neil Williams" He111 and the ex-Dan-Air Comet (that sat by the tower for years, starred in a "Madness" video in the early 80's, and was sadly scrapped when BCA took over the airfield)
Oh, and a Spanish Learjet used to visit quite a lot in his time aswell, though this was veiled in much secrecy
