William Morris, later to be ennobled Lord Nuffield, launched his first Minor in 1928 as a direct competitor for Austin's Seven, powered by an 847cc single overhead cam motor developed by Wolseley. 39,087 ohc-engined Minor cars and commercials, and a further 47,231 vehicles with sidevalve motors were built. The first Minor was replaced by the new Eight at the 1934 London Show. During its five year production run, a total of 21,000 Eights were made at Cowley, 15 per cent of them being open tourers, though most saloons like this 1935-built example.

1960 PUCH CHEETAH

Estimate: £700 - £1200

The Roller-Scooter became a popular style across the continent, and a number of other European companies produced variants on the Roller-Scooter theme during the later 1950s. The Puch Cheetah DS60K Mini-Roller Scooter was first listed in the UK from February 1960 to December 1960 and was then replaced by the more powerful Mark II DS60R in February 1961.

The Puch Cheetah came in two models, DS50R of 50cc, and DS60R of 60cc, with the same 70kg weight given for both types. The motors were basically a kick-start derivative of the established fan-cooled three-speed moped engine, but both models were fitted with a 17mm Bing carburettor for greater performance.

This 1960 DS60K version has had just one owner from new, covering a mere 2,722 miles in that time. The Cheetah starts and runs with a nice quiet engine, and is super-original with fitted tools and pump under the seat. Last used in 1983, and with its cherished original registration number and keys, this is a charming example of a what is a rare sight on today’s roads.
