The  Standard Motor Company made quite a lot of sub-standard 
stuff - mostly  Heralds (sorry Mr. Mace).


I know what you're saying, John, but I don't quite agree with you on  the 
Heralds. Yes, there were any number of quality control problems in assembly,  and 
even some engineering-related issues...from a relatively small company --  
with some questionable management issues and some serious financial issues --  
trying to rush a very innovative product to the market. To their credit,  most 
of these issues were dealt with rather quickly, resulting in a car that did  
an awful lot of good for "The Standard"!

Triumph Herald engine with   wings.
