The Registrar As so often happens, the relative of a past owner enquires of the website: No. 1: Sheila Robus asks … “My brother owned a three wheeled Morgan in 1962 the registration number was CNH 111I was wondering if anyone has restored it and if it is still on the road? I have found an old black and white photo - The car was dark green as far as I can recall”. To which Registrar, Steve Lister replied: We do have a note of CNH 111 in the Registry but unfortunately the last recorded owner is an M. Wachet in 1961 – nothing since. He lived in the southeast at the time. I can tell you that the Morgan was an F-Super model and was registered in Northampton in March 1951 - so was one of the last three wheeler Morgans to be made. I have made a note of your interest and if she turns up I shall get back to you. They do still “turn up” – we have had about six in the last year. Thank you for the photo, now added to our files. Best wishes, Steve Lister (MTWC Registrar) No.2: This time, Steve writes: We’ve had an enquiry through the website from Sue Edgecombe asking if the F-Type owned by her parents in the 1950’s is still around. It’s an F2 (or perhaps Super Sports!), registered CLU 81 – that’s a February 1936 London registration. Unfortunately, the last record in the Registry is from 1967 when the Morgan was owned by a C. Jacobs in the Midlands. The attached (fantastic) photo shows Peter and Doreen Tutton about to set off on their honeymoon to Bournemouth from Banbury. Looks like they have packed for a month! It was taken on the 2nd March 1956. Sue mentioned that Peter and Doreen attended many rallies in CLU 81 in the 50s – indeed Pete Thompson has several photos of the car in the Club Library. See the MTWC badge on the radiator. Does anyone have any information about the car? 6 100 Year Old Morgans - a series Dennis Plater MC 7722: 1913 Morgan - Sporting Model This is the early three-wheeled Morgan owned by the Science Museum, London, whose Collections Information Officer, Rory Cook, provided much of the information used in this article: Date of first registration: 31st December 1913 Car/body number: 387 (on the engine timing case cover) Chassis number: LVLO399CV 1703 Engine: JAP air-cooled side-valve no. 30829 Magneto: Bosch ZEV, no.1394811 Model: Sporting Nothing is known about this Morgan’s Land Transport Gallery until the Gallery was history until 1938. The DVLA Registration closed in 1996. Since then it appears to have Document does not record any former owners; languished in the Museum’s Reserve collection however, it does show the date of registration at Wroughton. as 31st December 1913. Another mystery is that On the Registration Document, no car or body the MC series of registration marks was issued by Middlesex County Council between August 1917 and August 1920.

  • Official Name: Bentley Motors Ltd. Formerly Owned By: Rolls-Royce
    Official name: Bentley Motors Ltd. Formerly owned by: Rolls-Royce Motors Ltd. Owned by: Volkswagen Audi Group. Current situation: Originally an impeccably- British luxury marque, Bentley is now simply one of Volkswagen’s luxury brands. Bentleys are re-bodied Volkswagens with Bentley badges glued on. Rich and ignorant customers have ensured brisk sales for the new models. However, economic stormclouds threaten luxury car sales, and Bentley is no exception. Chances of survival: Okay. If things get tough for Volkswagen, it is likely that Bentley will quietly cease Bentley production and wait for better times • A brief history of Bentley ALTER OWEN WBENTLEY, known to all as ‘W.O.’, was a pioneer of British luxury performance mo- toring. Bentley’s first job was at the Great Northern Rail- way Locomotive Works in Doncaster, northern England. However, bikes & motorbikes were Bentley’s passion. Off duty, Bentley and his brother raced at the Isle of Man TT event and at the Brook- lands race track, near London. Bentley’s passion then shifted to cars. In 1912 Bentley’s family helped W.O. buy a small com- pany importing French DFP sports models. 2 All content © dogandlemon.com 2016 During a visit to the DFP factory in 1913, W.O. noticed a lightweight aluminium paper- weight – and had the inspired idea of using alu- minium instead of cast iron to make engine pis- tons. The first such Bentley pistons went into service in aeroplane engines during World War I. Be- cause Bentley’s pistons were lighter, the engines they were fitted to used less fuel and put out more power.
