Austin A40 Somerset 1952-1954

The Somerset was originally fitted with either a 500-16 or 525-16 crossply tyre. There is a choice of 500/525-16 tyres available that can replace both these sizes.

Smallish family saloon from Austin's rotund and swoopy styling period in the early 1950s. Named using Austin's (mildly confusing) county system, it replaced the Devon/Dorset. It was well built, but very traditional in its technology and construction. Still looks cute, and was popular in its day, rare now.
