JYE995N Mercedes Charterway DCU London SC

West end of London. Just read a fascinating account of how the chief officer of the London SC in the 1930s Brynmor Eric Miles went to prison after he became mired in a elaborate fraud perpetrated by Leopold Harris, a fire risk assessor. Harris owned a house a few doors away from mine in East London. Harris also went to prison but died a wealthy man.

This machine was not successful and sold to Singapore. Charterway bodywork.
