Singer and MG were great rivals during the 1930s competing against each other on race circuits, trials stages and showrooms alike. Vying for sales with the MG T-Series, the Singer Roadster retained what was essentially the same two-door, swept tail silhouette throughout its sixteen year history (1939-1955) albeit with various stylistic tweaks along the way. The Singer Nine Roadster was a variant of the Bantam Singer Nine. After some years Singer cautiously returned to the sports tourer but not the sports car market. The open four-seater Nine Roadster appeared on the 6th March 1939 with a lightly tuned version of the larger 1074 cc overhead camshaft engine already seen in the Bantam Nine plus its three-speed gearbox.
This attractive little pre-war Roadster was exported to Jersey in 2001 and was previously UK-registered as 'HEH 623'. Understood to have previously been restored by Trevor Cornelius (Singer Spares) of Kent '27677R' has been in current ownership since 2019, with the vendor previously having the gearbox overhauled, a replacement clutch fitted, the prop shaft refurbished and 5 new tyres. Offered with a copy of repair manual, Green log book, collection of invoices and old MOT certificates The Singer will need to be registered once again in the UK with the DVLA however, the vendor has paid the VAT liability in the shipping costs onto the mainland with Channel Seaways. Hopefully, the original registration number will be retained in the process of registering.
PLEASE NOTE: The registration number displayed in the photographs is not included in the sale.
