Originally a 2-seat and dickie, this car was bought for Jack Cunliffe as a 21st birthday present.

twin SU’s, 20hp gearbox & V radiator, enlarged exhaust manifold, finned brake drums and Rudge hubs
replacing the original Dunlop type. Jack was a regular visitor to Brooklands with the car.
The body was later changed to open 4 touring because of a growing family.
A full history of the car is known, including all owners, Jack owned the car until 1939.

This delightful post vintage Vauxhall Cadet is in rather nice condition throughout, having gone through an extensive restoration about 15 years ago. The car has been very well kept since the restoration and drives as it should.
The engine, a 6 cylinder and just over 2 litres, performs well, it is very smooth and torquie, the 3-speed and reverse gearbox is easy to use, positive and well geared.
The steering is light, with no wonder and the brakes are good.
The interior leather is excellent, as are the carpets, door cards and head lining.
