But talking of Cornwall...

The 1 star luxury of the Driftwood Spars Hotel, St Agnes. Looks like St Agnes herself is proudly displaying a 1300 FWD Trumpet (I stand to be corrected on either the type of saint or car).

Yes they were popular here too, but here it lasted a little longer until the 1960s. And was still some in use the 70's and 80's also.

I know it predates it by 10 years and they were in an Avensis, but this picture always reminds me of The comic Strip’s Four Men in a Car.
