HOTCHKISS 2050

Saloon, cabriolet.

Tough Monte Carlo rally winner with a pedigree going back to 1929, briefly back in England in its final form, with vertical coil ifs, auxiliary coil springs at the back, synchromesh or Cotal 'box, and facelifted styling - vee screen and recessed headlamps. Suddenly it's 1935 again, but the scarce 130bhp short chassis Grand Sport is still a desirable classic.
