Nice looking vehicles but some strange wording in the accompanying text:

Quote:
Vehicle: JRU 236 has only had two previous owners and spent 11 years in a small motor museum in Ireland. It has a R061 chassis number, which confirms it is a Series 1. It was manufactured on 26th September 1949, probably in Solihull and first registered on 1st October 1949.

I don't think there's any doubt that it's a Series I or that it was built in Solihull

At a guess, written by marketing folk, who didn't bother to check their facts before writing the copy.
