Minerva

Minerva
MINERVA M4

Saloon.

A sign of the times, this was a dull pillarless saloon powered by the firm's last Knight type sleeve valve engine and marked a reversion to four cylinders for the first time since 1927. Synchro 'box a Minerva novelty, but only a three speeder, and the M4 had mechanical brakes. 60mph possible, but the Goddess radiator mascot looked out of place on such a mundane motor car.
