Beware of Morgan books, they do contain a lot of inaccuracies due to a lack of or lazy research. Such 'information' published in books and magazine articles are renowned for becoming gospel truth.

At least the one in Colin's video had a badge with all its paint intact! Somethings may have improved with wing construction etc. and somethings may have gone backwards.

Yes indeed. The oft-repeated canard that the 4/4 was referred to as the 4-4 before the war is a good example.

A bit of a horror movie but it is clearly a car that is in for restoration, not someone's P&J that is offered for sale.

Magwa, how legal is that bonnet adornment & what is it? John Its an art deco "Flying Nymph" fitted by the last owner. It's fitted on a alloy shear bolt so on impact with a pedestrian it will shear off. As for legality ? its no more illegal than a Rolls Royce or a Mercedes. It's called "Little Jeannie" after my recently departed mother. As she has bought me the car ( inheritance) its staying fitted
