Today we’re looking at our sixth car with a Vauxhall fluted bonnet, the L-Type Wyvern, produced from 1948 to 1951. During the Second World War, Vauxhall mostly gave up car production in order to build tanks, so picking up the thread again, especially given post-war austerity and rationing in the UK, must have been quite an effort. But it’s nice to see that they didn’t sacrifice little flourishes like those bonnet flutes. Snapped: British Motor Museum.
