Singers

Those of you with eagle eyes, and nothing better to do with your time will note that I have made a change to my profile. Under interests I have added Singer Cars. It is a sadness to me that many people have simply not even heard of the name Singer in this connection, yet before the last war they were one of the major UK motor manufacturers, later becoming part of the Rootes group ending up as sort of up-market Hillmans. - If you havn't heard of Hillmans either then you have probably stopped reading already!

So far I have owned at least three Singers (since I was a car dealer for a while I can be a little sketchy at times) my second car was a 1963 Singer Vogue series I, many years later I had a fantastic little Singer Chamois coupe, but these were just old bangers, quite recently I was quite distraught when I had top sell my beloved "Jade" a 1966 Singer Vogue series IV Estate

It doesn't show in this photo but she had git to the point where work was needed, that I could not undertake myself (lake of time and ability) and could not afford to have done professionally. It was time for her to go to another who could give her the attention she needed. Although that was now a few years ago I still miss her, and the whole classic car scene. I still hope to have another classic, preferably a Singer, but must wait until time and finance are a little more available.
