Vauxhall 30-98

30-98 hp Vauxhall Velox sporting car, open tourer

I like the scalloped radiator extending through to bonnet, not to mention ‘searchlight’ headlamps.

About 700 of this model built at Luton, Bedfordshire between 1913 -1927 with continual improvements, including electric lighting, electric horn ..and bulb horn, just in case. And a windscreen wiper (singular)

The car was at Largs Marina today, grandfather and granddaughter looked the part, as the big engine roared to life, sounds like a RR Merlin!

Let’s get back to building things in Great Britain, we have the heritage!

P.S. 100 yards away TESLA were offering test drives of all electric cars, built in California!
