1935 LANCHESTER 10

1203cc. This impressive Lanchester 10 comes with a large quantity of history dating right back to its early years. Highlights include a lovely black-and-white family photograph taken beside the car (with details of the people pictured) and a detailed account of its early ownership (compiled in 2011 by its then-owner of 25 years). It was registered on the last day of 1935, and today there are 63,294 miles showing on the odometer.

Over 2000 miles have been driven since the car passed its last MoT with no advisories in 2012. Lately it has been kept in dry storage without seeing much use, but the vendor reports that it is running. He has owned it since 2011 and describes it as an original example in standard specification.

The two lever-arch folders of paperwork also include details of many events the car has participated it over the last few decades, an impressive collection of MoT certificates going back to 1984, various handbooks and many maintenance receipts. One recent receipt (June 2026) is for a check-over, service and timing adjustment.
