  • Standard's Vanguard Story
    www.wheels-alive.co.uk Standard’s Vanguard Story Published: 28th October 2020 Author: Dave Moss Online version: https://www.wheels-alive.co.uk/standards-vanguard-story/ This superb 1948 Phase I belongs to Mark Denton, who restored the car in 1992. Standard’s Vanguard Story First World Car to final swansong in under 20 years. Dave Moss describes the history of this boldly-conceived model… Kim adds: Please note, this feature is intended to provide a general outline of the history of www.wheels-alive.co.uk all the Vanguards produced, to help those who may be unfamiliar with Standards bearing the name, rather than a detailed description of each version. (All photographs by Kim Henson, who personally thanks all the Vanguard owners who have enthusiastically helped to tell the story of their models to a wider audience. Some of the photographs were taken at the Standard Motor Club’s excellent International Rallies held in recent years. Others were taken with the kind help of Mark Denton, Vanguard enthusiast extraordinaire). Today the term “world car” is familiar even to those with only a passing interest in the vast industry that designs and makes motor vehicles. Cars are nowadays routinely built around the globe with multiple markets in mind, and despatched to territories worldwide, heading to buyers unaware of how well travelled their new vehicle already is. Though this approach might seem a fairly recent phenomenon, in 2020 its 75 years since what’s widely regarded as the first genuine world car was created. The concept’s originator was the Standard Motor Company’s then newly knighted managing director, Sir John Black, who, like industry leaders across Britain after the second world war, returned to car making under a government edict to prioritise exports.

EDITORIAL Dear Razoredge Owners’ Club Members, Welcome to Flaming June, we hope, and in particular to fine weather for our meeting at Hanbury Hall on June 11th. You’ll find fuller details of the arrangements within this edition. The idea of a club rally doesn’t necessarily appeal to everyone; a member recently told me “I don’t have a woolly hat or a beard, and I can’t see any point spending a day sitting in a field.” It’s not as bad as all that! However, for members who don’t particularly enjoy the traditional rally gathering, or who live too far away to contemplate driving to Worcester, our ‘What’s On’ pages list a wide variety of events, activities and meetings all around the country and further abroad.

But that styling certainly left an imprint on Bob Mann, one that kept him searching for a Mayflower for many years as Pat recently found out. “After I left school I worked for a few months in the local Standard/Triumph/Ferguson dealer here in Nowra,” recalled Bob. A Mayflower occasionally came in for service. The unique shape and the styling really appealed to me and I promised myself that if I ever had the chance I would buy one.” The reasons for the Mayflower’s appearance have a great deal to do with Sir John Black, Standard- Triumph’s autocratic chief in the immediate post-World War Two years.
