Triumph Mayflower 1949-1953

TRIUMPH MAYFLOWER, 1247cc, 1949-1953 Little sister to the 1800 and Renown razor-edge saloons, this quality-built and individual car doesn't yet seem to have achieved the "cult car" status predicted for it by some. The side-valve engine stems from the Standard 10.

The advertisement for the Roadster 2000 appeared on the cover of Motor magazine in 1949. It replaced the 1800 cc unit.
