Narrated by the late John Peel

In the clip of the Earl's Court Motor Show at 10m38s, notice the Coventry car-maker banners all grouped together...


Oddly no mention of the Wilson Preselector, an early form of automatic gearbox and major feature of both Daimler and Armstrong Siddeley cars.

Semaphore indicator just after the one minute mark. :thumbsup:

I always had a hankering for an AS, I doubt I'll ever get one now.
Of course it'll fit; you just need a bigger hammer.
