Welsh origins.....and an austin engine.....cars were overly expensive for the time and vat sealed the makers fate.

Thanks boosted, but it\'s more down to my search skills than knowledge - I\'d never heard of Gilbern! Fascinating reading about the history of the company though, so thanks for digging that one up :Thumbs-up

Never heard of Gilbern either... :)

Is it an RX500 - one of the three or what ever it was they made as engineering mules ?
