I should have thought a "Dimple of Daimlers" to match the dimpled radiator.
Can't think yet of one apt for the Armstrong Siddeley though. I'll keep pondering..

The only one I can think of would be a 'pre- selection' of Armstrong Siddeleys.
I fancied it would be a 'scarcity' of Angus Sandersons.
(Talking of Angus Sanderson...does anyone know what happened to the vast archive collected over many years by that wonderful motoring historian Michael Worthington Williams who passed away a few months ago.?) |

Sorry,,, the last one; I don't get it.
....OH YES! There are not too many of those left... and the ones that do survive don't have much of Luton metal left in them.
My Dad used to say he could "hear it rusting".

How about a Squadron of SAABs? A hive or buzz of Hornets and Wasps (Wolseley). A buzz or annoyance of Gnats (very rare two-seater Triumph Super 7, so probably just Gnat ) _________________ 1989 2CV

One might refer to a 'deception' of DeLorians.
...maybe a 'swindle'....
No disrespect to owners of these interesting cars...but the options are numerous. |
