Hill-climbs, trials, sprints, rallies - in fact almost every type of four-wheeled competition was sampled by Tony Marsh in the early fifties, when, at the wheel of the ex-Collins Cooper, he won his first three RAC hill-climb championships.

In 1957 he bought a Formula 2 Cooper, which he used to dominate Libre events at home and also raced on the Continent, making his debut in the German GP, where he took fourth in the F2 class. Over the next three seasons Marsh sensibly raced the Cooper in events where success was a realistic proposition, his best result being a win in the 1960 Lewis-Evans Trophy at Brands Hatch.

For 1961 Tony obtained a Lotus 18, which he drove in Grands Prix and even hill-climbs, winning five of the six events he entered, but despite a third on aggregate in the Brussels GP he soon set it aside in favour of a BRM. Then in 1962 a planned season with a works-tended BRM ended in legal action as Marsh felt the machine was unraceworthy. From then on he concentrated fully on the hill-climb scene, eventually replacing the BRM with a fearsome 4.3-litre Marsh-Oldsmobile special, with which he took another three titles to add to those won back in the fifties.
