TATRA 16HP

Saloon.

Rough, ugly but incredibly durable, this one featured all round independent suspension, an air cooled engine, backbone frame and a Renault  coal scuttle type bonnet that opened up and backwards, taking the headlamps with it. Also available was the Colonial model, complete with eight speeds gearbox, six wheels and four wheel drive; both models had pushrod operated valves and coil ignition. Bizarre.
