He has twice been married, first in 1972, and again in 1996, before starting his rally career as a hobby.
He was co-driven by his son, Chris Heatherington, who studied at Durham University. Peter made his WRC debut at Rally GB in 2000 as a privateer entry and was 53rd. He referred to his start as a "once in a lifetime" event for him and true to his word, it was to be his only start in Rally GB, but at least they made it to the finish.[1] Peter was an ex-accountant before his rallying career blossomed.
