• The old established coachbuilding firm of Sir William Angus, Sanderson & Co Ltd was founded in the late 18th Century and commenced motor manufacture in 1918 at Thomas Street, Newcastle upon Tyne. Mechin's of Glasgow supplied the chassis frames; engines came from Tylor of London; axles, gearboxes, steering gear and radiators from Wrigley's of Birmingham and electrics from Lucas. As one would expect, the coachwork was made in house, while wavy disc wheels were a feature of early examples. Interestingly, the stylish radiator was designed by Cecil Kimber, later the proprietor of Morris Garages and founder of MG.
  The 2,265cc four-cylinder engine was increased in capacity to 2,306cc in May 1919 and in June of that same year the firm moved to a large modern factory in Birtley, County Durham that had previously been employed making munitions. Under capitalised, Angus-Sanderson was soon in financial difficulties and its new plant's potential capacity was never realised. In 1921 the company was restructured under the control of S F Edge and after a further few hundred cars had been completed at Birtley, production was shifted to the old Graham-White works in Hendon, Middlesex. First seen in 1922, a prototype 8hp light car appears to have come to nothing and Angus-Sanderson's output of its existing models declined throughout the 1920s. The last cars, almost certainly assembled from existing stocks of parts, were completed in 1927. It is estimated that approximately 3,000 Angus-Sanderson cars were made, most of them in the firm's early years, of which only a tiny handful survives.
  Restored at date unknown, this rare survivor of a relatively obscure make is said to be one of the most original in existence. Finished in red with original black leather interior, the car is described by the vendor as in generally good condition, although we are advised that the clutch needs to be relined. The vehicle is offered with old-style logbook and Swansea V5. A supplementary radiator is the only notified deviation from factory specification.
