That's an interesting photo of UL 5219, as it shows a fabric body without the horizontal seam on the scuttle.
The Light Car & Cylecar Magazine of 29th June 1929 mentions that the Stadium model was introduced at the preceding Motor Show - ie October 1928 - so early examples would definitely have a nickel radiator. The Stadium sold for £135 including Tecalemit one-shot chassis lubrication, whereas the Cup model which continued to be sold beside it sold for £140 - I'm surprised the Cup continued to survive against it's cheaper and more modern sibling!
