In Brief:

Charming example of a pre war Standard 10 HP
Finished in two-tone Black and Blue, complemented by Blue upholstery

Just 5 owners in 89 years
Local car - originally registered in Bournemouth in 1936

On the Surface:

A charming and well-presented example, this 1936 Standard 10 HP is finished in two-tone Black and Blue, complemented by Blue upholstery. The car displays a lovely period aesthetic and remains in nice condition throughout.

Maintenance & History:

Under the stewardship of The Vendor for the past 12 years, the car has been maintained with care and attention. This Standard benefits from an exceptional and traceable history, with just five owners over 89 years. The first two custodians—a mother and son tobacconist and confectioner duo from Charminster Road in Bournemouth—set the tone for a life of thoughtful ownership. Originally registered in Bournemouth, this example has returned home from it's time away to be sold to a new custodian. Accompanying the vehicle is a comprehensive history file featuring the original buff logbook, a full breakdown of past ownership, early service records, Standard maintenance literature, old photographs and MOT certificates.

The Model:

The Standard 10 HP was a practical and reliable saloon of its time, offering quality engineering and understated styling that appealed to British motorists in the 1930s. Built just prior to the Second World War, survivors are now increasingly scarce—especially those with such an unbroken and well-documented provenance.

Sale Insight:

Now offered for sale after 12 years of ownership, this delightful 1936 Standard 10 HP is a rare find. With low ownership, local roots and a standout history file, it provides a compelling opportunity for enthusiasts and collectors alike to acquire a true pre-war classic with both charm and pedigree.
