On all the open cars-11 h.p and 14 h.p. -the rigid-framed side panels of the hood bave been strengthened to enable them to stand alone, forming side shields, when the hood is folded back: as hitherto there is provision for storing the panels behind the back upholstery of the main seat.
The increased value for money and the lower prices of some models, as mention- ed, have been made possible by reason of n further addition to the manufactur- ing programme for next year, 'which will result in an even larger output than in 1921. This is to a considerable extent due to the largely increased Overseas demand for Standard cars experi enced during the past twelve months, and to the fact that, owing to the features of both the 1 h.p. and 14 h.p, models being 80 attractive to Overseas as well as to British users, there is every indication that a further increase in the Overseas demand will supplement the ever-growing calla of the home market.
