One Man's Humber Collection

MailOnline: "They were once loved by the British Army, prime ministers, and kings and queens alike. Humbers were known as the poor man’s Rolls-Royce.

But while more than 80 per cent of all the Rolls-Royces ever built can still be traced today, fewer than one in 100 Humbers has survived. Even more surprising, the largest collection in Britain isn’t kept in a national museum but belongs to a potato merchant from Hull.

Allan Marshall, 55, keeps 27 Humbers in a 10,000 sq ft building next to his lorry depot".

Obviously this collection would be totally worthless if it wasn't for that Gold Humber Sceptre MKIII! ;) For more info check out the HumberCarMuseum.

Grey Craze


1968 Singer Vogue Estate. Photos by: Chappells10

UPDATE: It turns out this Singer Vogue Estate is the newest surviving example of its kind, it is a 68 model (G Reg. 1 August 1968 – 31 July 1969). And according to the owner all other Singer Vogue Estates, newer than this car, recorded as scrapped! Thanks again to Chappells10 for clarifying the facts for me.

Paykan Lowrider#42



Don't be fooled by the Hunter badge on the door, this is a Paykan! ;)

Lovely photo!... although I can't be 100% sure, but I have reasons (no Bumper-stops, thinner Body-side moldings, and fixed front quarter windows) to believe that this is a Singer Gazelle and not a Singer Vogue.
Unfortunately spottiewattie17's mum couldn't remember what version she had.

Tour of Azarbaijan

A "Cyclist Wannabe" here has tried desperately to change the subject away from Paykans!... today he sent me this photo, but apparently he didn't pay attention to the background! ;)

The photo is from The 2011 International Tour of Azarbaijan. Good Luck goes to the two Iranian riders Amir Zargari, & Mehdi Sohrabi!...

Southend-on-Sea

This could be either a Hillman Hunter MKI or a Hillman Minx. Photo was taken back in 1973 at Southend-On-Sea, Essex by: saxonessex
