I don't think it's an Albion or ERF as Albions always had 'rising sun' badges and ERF badges never had model names. I am guessing at a Maudslay?

Thanks for posting this picture,i ran a 7 car Hoynor with an MAN unit ( both ex Toleman) for R P Greaves running out of BCA at Blackbushe but never did take any pictures of those days---too busy!

I think a lot of drivers only use the mirror switch for small adjustments thus not giving the switch and mirror enough work to do,i give my switch and mirrors a full workout every couple of months to keep everything moving.
