Vauxhall 14-6 80 Open Tourer 1930
General description :
Der Vauxhall T 80 ( 20 – 60 H.P. ) ist ein typischer Vertreter der besonders in England beliebten offenen 4 sitzigen Tourenwagen.Mit seinem 6 – Zylinder Motor ( 20 Steuer PS und 60 BHP ) galt er als sehr leistungsstark und luxuriös ( Siehe das Bild mit dem Prince of Wales im Fond ). Nach der kurz zuvor erfolgten Übernahme von Vauxhall durch General Motors gab es die Finanzkraft für eine Preisreduktion. Es war dann der einzige Open Tourer, der für unter 1.000 Pound Sterling zu haben war. Das Angebot an Karosserievarianten, hergestellt durch verschieden Karosseriers, war groß. Die Open Tourer Karosserien wurden mehrheitlich bei dem Coach-Builder “ Princton“ hergestellt. Es gab aber auch Ausführungen der Fa.“ Grosvenor“ und von Anderen. Vauxhall lieferte lediglich “ Rolling Chassis“, wie es zu der Zeit üblich war. Bitte beachten sie die V-Form der Windschutzscheibe und das Holz im Boat-style. Eine Plakette deutet auf den ausliefernden Händler “ St. Lucas Garage, W. T. Baggs “ in Cheltenham hin. Fahrgestell Nummer 2014 und Motornummer 2018 entsprechen der Auslieferung. Dieses Fahrzeug ist sehr authentisch und sachkundig und in den Details liebevoll restauriert worden. Es hat seine Zuverlässigkeit in vielen Touren belegt. Das aus dem Jahr 2016 stammende Gutachten hat etwas optimistisch die Note “ 1 “ bestätigt.Der internationale FIVA -Pass sowie der deutsche DEUVET – Ausweis liegen vor. Auch gibt es das originale “ Instruction Book „, Wagenheber, Werkzeuge und zeitgenössisches Zubehör.Mit diesem Fahrzeug sind Sie sicher auf fast allen Veranstaltungen gern gesehen. Sie können ihn aber auch einfach für genussvolles “ Auto – Wandern “ einsetzen.

About Vauxhall
The history of Vauxhall Motors, a British automobile manufacturer, is a rich tapestry spanning more than a century, involving innovation, collaborations, and transitions.Early Years: Vauxhall was established in 1857 in Vauxhall, London, initially producing pumps and marine engines. In 1903, they ventured into automobile manufacturing, creating their first car, the Vauxhall 6HP. The brand gained a reputation for producing reliable vehicles.
Acquisition by General Motors (GM): In 1925, Vauxhall was acquired by General Motors (GM), which influenced its trajectory for several decades. This partnership brought technological advancements and expanded Vauxhall's market.
Genuine Vauxhall Models: In the earlier years of Vauxhall's history, especially before the collaboration with Opel, Vauxhall produced cars that were uniquely developed by the company. These vehicles, such as the Vauxhall Victor, Viva, and Cresta, were designed and engineered by Vauxhall independently of Opel.
Badge-Engineered Opels: As Vauxhall came under the ownership of General Motors (GM) in the mid-20th century, it became part of a network of GM-owned brands that included Opel in Germany. This led to the practice of badge engineering, where certain Opel models were rebranded and sold as Vauxhalls in the UK and vice versa.
For instance, models like the Vauxhall Carlton and Cavalier had their counterparts in the Opel range, such as the Opel Omega and Ascona. These cars were essentially the same vehicles with minor cosmetic differences and were marketed under different badges for specific markets.
This strategy allowed GM to streamline production and development costs by sharing platforms and technologies across markets, thereby creating cars that were economically feasible for different regions while retaining a semblance of distinct branding.
Perceived Differences: While many of these badge-engineered models shared much of their engineering, components, and technology, there were perceptions among some consumers and critics that Opel-badged cars might have been slightly more refined or better equipped compared to their Vauxhall counterparts. However, this perception wasn't universal and might not have been true for all models.
