Posh lady, your Grandma. I liked them when I was a kid, Renowns and Mayflowers, not posh grammas.

I can still remember the hiss of the 'cold start' thingy. But I grew up with Daimlers. Check out DB 18s. Not the consort model, but the 1948.

My first car was a Mayflower, very stylish (knife-edged styling, i believe they called it)

When my Jeep finally hits the road should make a few people wonder why it has 4 levers in it: Manual shifter, Overdrive/ underdrive selector, high/low lever and 2wd/4wd lever. Works out to be a 12speed not including the 4 reverse speeds.

Try this. Of course, it would be illegal in oz.
