ALTA 9 HP

2-seater sports, 4-seater sports.

Geoffrey Taylor's own creation with own hemi-head wet-liner engine giving 49bhp unblown and 76bhp supercharged. Magnesium alloy pistons, nitralloy crank, four-speed crash or pre-selector 'box, 13ins mechanical brakes, and an underslung frame with quarter-elliptics at the back. Specifications vary, but don't expect civilised amenities. Five cars survive.
