Not common in the US or Canada. It was imported but regarded as too small and
too slow. Probably too
expensive as well. It was essentially built for the UK and known there, as well
as all other markets
where it was sold as the Standard Ten. This one had a 948cc engine (as the
early Herald) while
another, the Standard 8 had the same power unit but 803cc. This looks a nice
one - except for the
fact the engine's the wrong colour. It should be gold metallic and not BMC
Olive Green. It also
appears to have the little known accesory panel to the left of the speedo for
two instruments off
the TR range. Any two of oil pressure, ammeter or coolant temp. Price would
seem to reflect what
others like it in the same condition are being sold for in the UK.
