Latest Bouquet (6th Nov

Cracking website,
absorbing, interesting, friendly, colourful, varied, full of
information. Well done. Dedication at its best. Thank you
We cater for every model of Standard, every coachbuilt body on a Standard chassis and any vehicle made from Standard parts.
We cater for owners
wherever they are in the world.
We are a non-profit
making club run by a democratic committee elected at
an AGM that takes place once a year.
We publish annual
accounts so you can see all our income and
expenditure.
There are thousands
of pages, photographs and features here to help you
identify your car and the site is expanding on a
daily basis, thanks to your contributions.
Members pay an
annual subscription to benefit from our services.
These services include the
following: a monthly magazine, three spares
warehouses, spares remanufacturing service,
technical, repair and restoration advice,
national and international groups, special insurance
deals, events and meetings.
Due to product

supply spare parts and other items directly to North
America.
We will gladly
answer any question you have about a Standard Car,
through this website. If you would like any other
services it is necessary to join the club.
