At the time, my grandfather was running either an Austin A40 with a home-made floor, or an Austin 1100. Not quite so exciting!

I dunno, home made floors can be quite...interesting

Heh, when I say home made - this one was built by a team of machine engineers on a Saturday morning (my grandfather was a works foreman), probably using half-inch steel plate... apparently, there were a team of guys and basically all they did for Saturday overtime was repair other employees' cars using company materials.

I'm quite sure the replacement floor would have outlived the rest of the car by quite some margin!

really odd details included in this 'news' article.

https://www.express.co.uk/life-style/cars/1478181/kate-middleton-duchess-of-cambridge-royal-news-first-car-vw-golf

In total, the future Duchess of Cambridge closed up 60,000 miles on a car she owned for six years.

During this time, she made only small adjustments to the car with a wing mirror change in 2003 and a new front headlight fitted in 2006.

 Hmm, not the usual six years worth of parking by feel damage.
