What
some of our readers say:
Dear
webmaster,
About
your homepage, there is only one word: e x c e l l e n t. I am a
visitor of your homepage daily.
I
am visiting a lot of other homepages about other cars like Fiat
and Hillman. All other clubs would really like a webmaster like
you, Phil. The Standard homepage is no doubt the best.

Hi Phil,
Just a quick note to say
thanks for the great web site and that I am going to join your
club because of it, I found the help and encouragement it gave
me, is a credit to you.
I will sort out the
application form soon. I have just purchased a 1955 Standard
8, (so I'm a bit distracted at the moment) not as
glamorous as some on the site, but I have to start somewhere,
I have my eye on a very poorly Flying Standard 9. its a bit
out of my depth as a first project, but I live in hope. Maybe
as a second.
Thanks again for doing a fine
job on the web site, maybe we will meet one day.

Great write up Phil on the
Register weekend, much enjoyed. Photos were a bonus.

I have written to you before reference your web site , but feel
that I should now write again . You go from strength to
strength, in fact I do sometimes wonder just from where you
obtain all your material. I enjoy all articles about old cars ,
I have restored two prewar Morris and a post war Jaguar, but I
am sorry to say never a Standard , although having said that my
first car, in 1968 , was 1958 Standard Ten , VKV 427, now long
gone to the great scrapyard in the sky I should imagine! This no
doubt accounts for my " soft spot " for the marque .
I am rather enjoying the articles
reference the Standard built Sopwith Pup, it will become very
interesting as the restoration proceeds and it becomes a
flying exhibit. Your competitions have also proved to be
deadly, the one about the out of position hood irons had me
thinking but I could not solve it , and as for the one about the
steering wheel finger grips, never in a thousand years would I
have solved that !!
In the mean time please keep up
your excellent work, I, and I am sure many many other people
look forward to reading your pages, which I check once a
day for new stories .
Best regards ,
John Whale, Coventry

develop and up date this site. It is a credit to yourself and all those who contribute.
There is a place in my heart for a real car and stumbling across your site has been
an inspiration. I really must pull my finger out and do something about the 47 Flying
eight in the basement. Keep up the good work mate." - Regards, John Nelson, New

"I must thank you for the great job you are
doing for enthusiasts like me. If not for your site, I would never have known what the
original (Standard 10) looked like. I don't think there are very many cars in Sri
Lanka, in fact I haven't seen one in Colombo. Hence, I intend to make my car the best in
the country. Wishing you success in all your future endeavors" -
