Simca Vedette Australian launch, June 1956:

(Fun fact: Australia is home to the only Simca Vedette which is currently being used as a historic race car, from what I've heard.)

Renault Fregate review, June 1956:

I'm sure Classic & Sportscar had a Frégate feature some years ago, and not just any old Frégate, but a Transfluide auto. The effect was something like a stately cruise liner.

But wait, what's this??  Check out the reg RTW 833D.  Further modified.

Anyone know what happened to the John Whitmore Zodiac?

I discovered there were many interesting vehicles that reached Australian shores which I didn't know were sold here. The first of which being the Panhard Dyna:

Continuing the series of cars I didn't know where sold here in Australia is the Renault 15:

I've seen a few R17s now and then but not an R15, so I presumed they weren't sold here.

Genuine LeMans Lagonda 4 1/2 litre.  £650 seems pricey…

Compared to the 1930 Bentley 4 1/2 for £295.  I think they’re about 2 million quid now😳

Yet again another car I didn't know arrived to Australian shores, the Berkeley microcars (could of been a one off import) :

That's a nicely styled car. Much better than the Zephyr Mk.4 which is the UK equivalent. The front end has a very Italian look.
