By the time I was old enough to drive these were so outdated so an Austin 1300 it was.
Now, a neighbour had a Jowett Javelin back then which I had a boner for along with an Armstrong Siddeley.
Today I took my grandchildren to the Bradford Industrial Museum where they have numerous cars and vans produced by Jowett. That was a company that went tits up in 1954 but my God their cars were beautiful. They were made in a place called Idle (famous for having the Idle Mens Working Club, a contradiction in terms) where I lived just after my happy divorce. Here are a few. Yes, across the pond you had Mustang's Camaro and Charger's but we had our little bit of England to enjoy.Name:  IMG_20190829_113448.jpg
