Humber
HUMBER 16-60/SNIPE (1933)

Tourer, 4-light saloon, 6-light saloon, sports saloon, foursome drophead coupé, limousine de ville.

The Rootes influence moves in, with a new sv unit, though seven mains retained and Snipe has five more bhp in latest guise. Rubber engine mounts, too: gearbox and brakes unchanged. Frames have X-bracing, and saloons come with recessed trafficators and bottom-hinged wipers. Bodies prettier, especially the two-toned sports saloons, a Snipe exclusive.
