Marketed as a 'razor edged' saloon in the 1950, it was the shorter version of the Triumph Renown. The Mayflower was also the first production line model to be fitted with a 'column' gear change in the UK.I had one for my first car and learnt to drive in it. A remarkable vehicle, it had a 'side-valve' engine that took forever to get up to 50 mph, but you could hit the steepest hill and it just kept going at the same speed.
Haven't seen one for years, but they did have a certain style.3. Says: Truimph Mayflower, a 1950 forgotten car made in the UK and not since then.4.
