MINERVA AB 12CV

Saloon, coupé, 4-seater coupé.

The company's small car, it used standard Minerva sleeve valve engines and was heavy on oil but refined in manner. Like all their cars, this one was beautifully made, came with a three speed 'box (central change), steel disc wheels, 118ins wheelbase and ordinary looking body styles. Road tests yielded 56mph at Brooklands, so performance adequate and no more.
