Seller's comments about 1932' Lanchester Straight Eight Sporting Tourer
The Straight Eight was a George Lanchester design and was based on his very successful 6 cylinder design, the 23hp.
Just over 100 cars were built, the 1929 financial crisis took its toll and the Lanchester Motor Company was finally sold to Daimler in 1930. The Lanchester Motor Company is a dormant company and still owned by Jaguar.
During my ownership it has been in regular use both for holidays and participating in various motoring events and shows all over the country. This includes the Lanchester Register rally that has taken place in various locations over the years. The car is a multiple winner of the Lanchester Register Shield.
