During a conversation to-day, it turned out that the chap I was talking to owned a 1936 Morris 8/40. It so happened my first car was a 1938 Morris 8/40.
When I asked him what the '40' referred to, he thought it was brake HP. It was nothing like 40 BHP ! Although not that concerned about it, I often wondered about that '40'...the nearest I ever found in the 'specs' was the oil pressure. Anyone know what it's about ?
