- Retired work colleague Steve Lewis exhibited his Humber Super Snipe MkIII at Eastbourne’s “Magnificent Motors” on the Western Lawns on 1st May 2022. I was lucky enough to get a lift back to Polegate.
Watch out for the steam roller which makes a couple of appearances!
Loved watching. Superb car and big thumbs up!
my dad had one in the 50s & 60s, LAD 958 in satin bronze & fitted with a 6354 perkins with a chrysler airflow g/box & o/drive, 33 mpg for a 2 ton + car in those days was pretty good.
Lovely Humber, I’ve just seen this very Car on the John Peel Classic Cars programme from the 1990’s- early 2000 👌🏽😊
Eastbourne and Super Snipes just belong together !!
Very popular taxi at Newquay railway station in the 1950's beloved by the Drivers and customers for two small rear facing seats. Could accommodate families in a single trip. Smooth, quiet quality car.
I can't believe that steam-roller is legal to drive on the roads. The Humber car reminds me of an American Packard. It's a superb and elegant design.
My dad had one HYS 256 4086 cc side valve column change .
This actual car was registered in my home town of Hastings, Sx. UK. And was in all probability supplied by the now defunct Local Rootes garage: Jarretts Motors, who were located in Silverhill. According to DVLA, the car is still in regular use.
Whoops ! Just noticed the "Langney Motors" of Eastbourne sticker on, the fascia of this beaut. As a kid, my uncle had a shooting break, (Woodie) of this model.
The dog in the first carriage of the traction engine group does not seem to be very thrilled.
A superb example of its type. I always thought Humber cars were a cut and more above the competition for style and comfort in their executive class motors. Sorry, but I like the car more than the steam engine.
Is it the same as Wesley Pegdon had one?
Why did no one tell the captain on the bridge that a one of the trailer wheel was flat?
Not the same car
Hi Beautiful car could you please tell me the year
It is a 1952 Mk3 Super Snipe
Novice driver over the shoulder reverse and push pull steering.Very poor instructor
Beautiful car. Off topic but I think steam rollers, and such should be banned off the roads. I wonder how many crashes have been caused by frustrated drivers trying to overtake.
Oh my
Like those shown in the video - breaking the law by overtaking in the "no overtaking" zone of a pedestrian crossing?
People need to slow down in their cars, everyone is tearing about wasting fuel. They cant wait these days, i would love a tractor anx i'd slow drivers up
@@martinwyatt6390 In your rush to post you made a number of typos - I hope that your driving is not so slapdash!
@@gnosticbrian3980 What do the typos matter? The chap made a fair point.
