Good selection of vehicles there Penman, thanks for putting all the photos together. The Delage looks like fun, the orange Aggro estate is identical to one that a friend's mum had in the 70s.

Love the detail on the Delage, wonder when it was built?

Hi
The owner said it was the first year when "riding mechanics" were not required.
So that should be around '25, previous cars had the second seat set slightly further back than the driver so that the two of them would be closer together (IE mechanic's R shoulder behind driver's L shoulder) He also acknowledged that it is not totally original, more a recreation; that is if i recall it correctly.

I have just realised that the big Austin engine was in the wrong place so have moved it up a couple of places.
Must have a look through the camera because it look as if that car's photo didn't take, in the meantime it is the big soft top in the background of the J40 picture.
