Description
• Property of a deceased's estate • The first 10hp built, fitted with a unique Coupé body • Present ownership since 1987 following long term family ownership • Restored in 1990 and shown at international Concours d'Elegance 'Count them on the road,' was Standard's advertising slogan in the early 1920s, a time when the Coventry-based firm was Britain's third largest motor manufacturer.
Standard's first stab at the increasingly important light car market sector arrived in 1928.
Powered by a 1,287cc four-cylinder engine, this model was known as the 'Nine' up to 1931, when the introduction of a smaller version saw it renamed 'Big Nine'.
In 1933 the latter's place was taken by a new 1,343cc 10hp model, a well finished, durable and generously equipped car that offered excellent value for money.
The first Standard 10hp chassis off the production line, this car was presented new to Amy Johnson, the pioneering lady aviator who was the first woman to fly solo from London to Australia.
