| Fred, the car nearest the camera is a Standard Vanguard and the one behind it is either a Vauxhall Wyvern /Velox or Cresta. Don't think it's a Cresta as they were usually two-tone. |

| Car on the left is a Austin Cambridge A55,(1957-58) the car on the right is a Vauxhall Velox (1951 - 57) and the car at the rear that you can just see behind the Austin is a Hillman Minx Mk VIII (1955) |

| Derek B I stand corrected ,the car is a Standard I was going off my memory that the badge on the side of the bonnet said Austin of England, but Googling photos of a Standard you are right. The other car is definitely a Velox although other models of this make had an enclosed rear wheel and the chrome trim went the full length of the bodywork |

| You're right about the tansad Jimmy, but I think nowadays you have to say a buggy. |

| The "motorbike" is an "Autobike" (with pedals), maybe a New Hudson 100cc 2 stroke engine, or similar |

| You're probably right Art. I wasn't sure about the mainstand under the rear wheel. What do you make of the bikes in the picture ' Abram North ' ? |
