A supercharged Ulster - or a Bugatti? An interesting selection of Austin 7s for sale - s supercharged Ulster for 52 guineas (£54 : 10s : 0d) or, a choice of two Bugattis for a little more? Take your pick.
A surprising number of "specials" on offer, too, including a 'rebuilt' chassis.

Aye, the trouble with nostalgia is that it's a bit retrospective...
I'd love a gander at page 18 "B.S.A.s. 200 under £100.00, see page 18 "

So, according to tinternet. 65quid in 1936 is about £5800 today. I wonder if the Brescia is still for sale. Might ring them later.

I tried, but the operator said that the Strowger blocks in the local exchange were worn out and unlikely to be replaced any time soon....

And the Austin 7s were dearer than the Brescias !!!
