Yes the SS (Swallow Sidecar, made in Blackpool, I think) had to be dropped after the war due to unpleasant associations. Again, a very pretty car. William Lyons, the owner and maker initially, had a real flair for design. I think the Engines were Standard (marque), but I couldn't swear to it.
We are getting quite a cluster of Jaguar cars, but I notice no-one has piped up with a hitherto unknown desire to go for a 2CV.
Incidentally, after looking at the underbonnet of the D type, I'm sticking with the XK120.
