SOLD SOLD SOLD With its elegant Fairmile two-door, four seat, Drophead Coupe body, by Coachcraft, and powered by the mighty Hudson Straight 8 engine of 4303 c.c. driving through a 3-Speed gearbox with Overdrive we are pleased to be offering this wonderful example for sale on behalf of its fastidious owner, who is a long-term WinSpeed customer.

This four-owner car – originally built for a Mr. Messenger, whose wife was secretary to Railton company owner, Noel Macklin – has a good and continuous history. Extensive restoration has been undertaken, in addition to which its engine has covered only 20,000 miles from new.

This is a great, charismatic, Pre-war touring car taking on the likes of Lagonda LG45, Alvis Speed 25 and Derby Bentleys for a fraction of their prices.

Viewing is strictly by appointment.
