A good useable example of the desirable ‘big bore. small boot' MKVI. in sound order. correct in all ways. and driving particularly nicely. with a very lively engine. which ‘feels as though it wants to go'! The car has been with us in the past. so we know it from then. and can recommend it as being ready to use. Complete with an absolutely complete tool kit in the tray under the dashboard. with handbook just beneath. large tools in correct clips in the boot. a useful file of history. and the original logbook. dated Jan 9th. 1952.

After only 3 years business had grown & diversified into motor vehicles and Thomas moved from Church Street to King Street. Brighton. Shortly after Thomas Snr's death Harringtons moved into new purpose built premises known as Sackville works. the factory covered some 7 acres and after WWII the company had over 600 employees.
