"Drive the Flag"

All about Standard Cars:

• In 60 years of production, it is believed that the company produced over 200 different models.

• There is a year by year account of production in "Standard History"

• Standard components were also the basis of many other manufacturers and coachbuilders products, Triumph, SS, Jaguar, Avon and Morgan, to name just a few.

• To make this site easier to navigate, I have divided the cars into sections,  related to age, wherever possible:

• The "Vintage and Edwardian" Section deals with the earliest cars from 1903 - 1930

• "Post Vintage" covers the period 1930 - 1936

• "Flying Standards" were produced up until the war and their postwar derivaties until 1947

• 1947 saw the launch of the "Vanguard", which survived in developed forms until 1963

• In 1953 came the smaller "Eight's, Ten's", then Pennants and Companions.

• Whilst Standard never produced a distinct Commercial range, there were many "commercial" variants of the cars.

• In both World Wars, Standard produced many aircraft and other "military" products.

• "Coachbuilders" features bodies on complete Standard Chassis

• You can read about other manufacturers who made vehicles "Built from Standard Parts"

• "Factories" summarises the UK production sites

I am aware that there are other cars and information that could be added to this site to make it more comprehensive, so if you have material and photographs, please let me know.  Please send me, Phil Homer, a message at: Phil Homer
