I must admit the thought crossed my mind that the quality of the video not to mention the camera view looked a bit wrong for the era and the technology back then. I think perhaps it might be a 1953 BRM V16 driven by AN Other in more modern times. Perhaps a GoPro type camera rather than a super 8 or similar camera that would have been available in 1953!

I note in the comments there is a mention of Stirling having driven one, but not saying this was a video of Stirling at the wheel.

Great video anyway, regardless of who and when. The sound was good enough on its own.

Edit: Just noticed the poster / uploader on youtube goes by the name of "FollyFilms"
