Having just finished the Bentley R-Type Continental Book (early 1950s), I was struck by the amazing owner options available at the time.
One which caught my eye was 'heel recess in footboards under pedals', but my favourite has to be 'anti-hobo door locks'!
Stu.

Quaint and rather lovely Brill.
I'm mindful of anti-hobo packs for South Africa, or somewhere, that I saw some months ago.
You press a pedal and flamethrowers blast a jet out from each front door. They'd sell loads in Central Leeds, Manchester, Birmingham.....
It just shows you how things change. My old grandma would never sit on a warm seat for fear of swooning, I could never call my Mum "she" or "her" in front of grandma. I'd be happy with "he" or "him" from my kids.
A Parker pen for Xmas. Wasn't I lucky?
If I offered my kids such a present I'd don't think they would just stop at telling me what to do with it.
