Saloon.

Available with the 16hp and 20hp engines, both for the same price, £275. 65mph easily possible, the engine had seven main bearings and was a reliable sturdy workhorse in the classic standard tradition, later to achieve sporting success in the SS Jaguar '100'. Before '36, they all came on a 110ins wheelbase, while new also that year were forward engine mounts, downdraught carbs and telescopic steering columns.
