An evolution of the proven Ten model, the Singer 10/26 was powered by an enlarged 1,308cc OHV four-cylinder engine rated at 26bhp. Reputedly capable of 50mph, the newcomer benefitted from the adoption of four-wheel drum brakes during 1926 before production ended the following year. Circa 15,500 examples were made but survivors are a rare sight today.

This lovely example has had a presence in enthusiast circles since circa 1983, when it emerged from substantial renovation which has mellowed very attractively over the ensuing 40 years. There are only six owners on record, with four since 2007. The vendor purchased it in 2018 and says: “It’s a lovely tourer in very good condition. I have owned it for seven years but rarely used it. I last used it for a wedding in September, 2024. It starts on the button and drives as it should for a 100-year-old car.” With previous owners, it has been enjoyed at VSCC events and, being of sub-1,500cc, it represents an ideal candidate for the popular Light Car & Edwardian Section rallies.

As the Singer marque celebrates a major milestone this year in reaching its 150th anniversary (its first products, of course, were bicycles), there will continue to be many opportunities to enjoy Singer motoring, and this handsome vintage specimen represents an ideal way to do so. Described the vendor as “very good” in most areas with “excellent” interior trim, it is sold with the V5C and a file of paperwork and details of the 1980s renovation. Accompanied by full weather gear including side screen and as new rear and front tonneau covers, there is also the jack and wheelbrace present.
