Yummy. She's famous Crossley Streamline with rear-engine. Rare thing, even in 30s. -- Last edit: 2012-04-20 12:50:01 |

Crossley Burney registered Hertford CC in mid 1930 but not made until 1934. Only 25 made. Regards Vintman |

We have many names: 'Crossley Streamline', 'Crossley Rear Engined Streamline', 'Crossley-Burney Streamliner'. Which one is correct? |

Crossley-Burney 1934 according to Georgano: "Burney Streamline saloon with 2 litre Crossley engine at rear made at Gorton to Burney design and appart from Crossley radiator much like the cars made at Maidenhead few years earlier". Crossley 2 litre Burney according to Segwick's A-Z; only three survivors, one original. I think all the registrations were made up for the film. Vintman |

Probably, or something else funny going on with this UR xxxx series. It looked vaguely familiar because in real life, UR 6751, 6752 and 9155 are 1930 Bentleys. |
