Forget your Sunbeam Funwagon or Harrington Alpine, on Ebay is the Ultimate
Rootes vehicle: Item number: 270179282875 Humber Pig . Yes, you and your
buddies can drive to any car show in a Humber Pig and who is going to have a
car like yours? With that battering ram front bumper nothing is going to stop
you from getting in. There is enough room in back for 8 of your friends to
ride in style. Pop that hood and you can show off the Rolls-Royce B60 6-cyl
4.2 litre petrol with 120 hp! I guess the other Rootes engines of the period
didn't have enough oomph to propel the Pig. You would think a amored car
would have a machine gun but there is none. I guess you poked your weapon out
the gun ports to shoot the bad guys.
