My first though was that it looked like the Sunbeam used in Downton Abbey but a check revealed it is not. Even though it is a UK car, it looks so low-built that I wonder if it is a Stutz AA. |

Listed by British Hotchkiss Society as AM 80 Chantilly, 3016cc, along with 3 other Chantillys. Is Chantilly a model or a body style? UK or F bodywork? /vehicle_532657-Hotchkiss-AM-80-1930.html |

Digging deeper into wiki - " ... the company decided on a one model policy and introduced the Coventry designed AM in 1923. Later that year the Coventry plant was sold to Morris. In 1926 construction of the new factory in the Boulevard Ornano was completed and in 1929 Hotchkiss got hold of a steel press allowing in-house manufacture of steel bodies. The one model policy lasted until 1929 when the six-cylinder AM73 and AM80 models were announced. "73" and "80" stood for the bore of the engines used .... Although most cars had bodies that were factory built, Hotchkiss still was a luxury car brand, and so coachbuilder Veth and Sons built a small number of bodies for the AM80." So seems everything was bodied in F or NL by 1930, with no UK involvement. |
