1939 Cars Will Be...

By J. D. S. ALAN

British car designers, I evolving the 1938 body fashions, are unlikely to follow the foreign tendency to conceal lamps and horns within the bonnet and wings.

I asked Mr. Mourlee Newnham, managing director of the Triumph Company, about this because he has. a particularly audacious mind on car design.

When he took over the company two years ago he caused a lot of headshaking over the bold nov radiator grille, but the public quick- ly accepted it.

Now he has presented next year's range, eight Dolomite cars, of which three are new.

"TOO ADVANCED "

"I have been studying designs of concealed headlights," he confessed. "They are much cheaper, actually, but a bit too advanced.

"My view is that the Englishman still like a bit of a show on the front of his car."

And the lamps and twin horns on his new models made a brave show

The new models are the 14-60-h.p. Dolomite Royal saloon, at £375, and,

in the 2-litre closs, a Hoyal saloon, at £425, and a roadster, at £450.

I noticed that, in the search to re- duce wind noises, the Royal saloons had flush-itting doors and alumin- ium panelled roots.

The roadster coupes are cars of ex- ceptional beauty, with engines tuned to give, with ease, speeds of 80 and 90 m.ph. with the 14/60 and 2-litre types respectively.
