Description
By: Robert Cook .
This is the story of Vauxhall, which celebrated its 100th birthday in 2003. From humble beginnings in South London, the company grew to become one of the largest manufacturers of cars in the UK. From its Luton, Ellesmere Port and Dunstable factories came models such as Wyverns, Crestas, CA and CF vans as well as a distinctive series of cars, vans and trucks in more recent times.
Written with the help of the Vauxhall archives, this book tells the story of the company from 1903 until the present day, going full circle from the first car to the loss of production in Luton under General Motors.
This fascinating history will be of great interest to car and truck enthusiasts as well as local people in Bedfordshire and Merseyside who have worked in the Vauxhall and Bedford plants.
