Book excerpt: Vauxhall cars have been central to motoring in Britain for over a century. The company built a formidable reputation in its early years with notable machines like the Prince Henry, the 30/98 and the 1914 Grand Prix cars, and then moved into a more mainstream area of the market, remaining in the forefront of innovation during the 1930s. The post-1945 years saw the company as one of the foremost in Britain, catering for family needs with cars like the Velox, the Cresta, and the Victor, and then building the highly successful Viva range of smaller models. Closely aligned with its German cousin, Opel, Vauxhall relied increasingly on Opel's designs after the mid-1970s. Astra, Cavalier, Nova and Carlton were among the best-loved cars of their era, and no-one can forget the giant-killing 176mph Lotus Carlton. This illustrated introduction explores the history of Vauxhall cars from its beginning in 1903 to the city cars and SUVs that have led the Vauxhall product lines, as the company continues to excel in the twenty-first century.

Book excerpt: The untold story of Britain’s oldest car makerMany previously unpublished images from the vaults of VauxhallA view from the inside that has been untold until nowOf interest to the motorcar historian and modellers Vauxhall has been making cars in Britain for longer than anyone else. The first Vauxhall car left a cramped Thames-side works in 1903. Moving to Luton in 1905, Vauxhall became famous as a maker of sporting and luxury cars. Bought by the American giant General Motors, the company entered the era of mass production and, with the addition of Bedford trucks and vans, became one of the top five UK producers. After the Second World War, Vauxhall became the household name it is today with models such as Viva, Astra, Cresta, Victor, Nova, Cavalier and Vivaro. The journey from the Thames to today’s plants at Ellesmere Port and Luton is full of twists, turns, dramas and triumphs, and continues with the announcement of the sale of General Motors European operations to the PSA Groupe. The author worked at Vauxhall for 38 years, from apprentice to boardroom. He has told the Vauxhall story with the benefit of years of experience and a lifelong passion for the marque.
Download or read book Vauxhall Cars of the 1960s and 1970s written by James Taylor and published by The Crowood Press. This book was released on 2021-02-22 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vauxhalls held a special place in the British motoring scene of the mid-twentieth century. Solid, reliable and respectable, they were carefully designed to meet the expectations of buyers and also to meet the global ambitions of General Motors in America, the company that owned the Vauxhall marque. The book covers just over two decades of Vauxhall history, between the late 1950s and the late 1970s, that saw Vauxhall producing a succession of fondly remembered models, including some genuine classics. This new book features the styling, engineering and specification changes introduced over the lifetime of the Victor, Cresta and Viva ranges, and their offshoots. It gives full technical specifications of each model and includes a special examination of engine development in this period. Finally, there is advice about buying each of these models.
Download or read book The Vauxhall written by Peter Hull and published by Bloomsbury Shire Publications. This book was released on 1992 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first Vauxhall was a single-cylinder runabout built by a marine-engineer firm in London in 1903. In 1905 the frim moved to Luton, where they built bigger three-cylinder and four-cylinder cars, and in 1907 the business waas reformed as Vauxhall Motots. The appointment in 1906 of a brilliant young designer, Laurence Pomeroy, brought a golden age, marked by his four-cylinder side-valve cars, and by competition successes at home and abroad, notably with the Prince Henry and 30-98 models. Twin overhead-camshaft racing cars were built for the 1914 and 1922 Tourist Trophy races and the French Grand Prix of 1914, and the D-type Vauxhall was a famous staff car of the First World War. In 1925 the firm was bought by general motors of the USA, which concentrated on producing inexpensive but good-quality family cars, such as the Vauxhall Cadet of 1931. During the Second World War Vauxhall designed and made the Churchill tank. By the 1970's Vauxhall cars needed a facelift and General Motors were amongst the first to institute the international car, entusting design in Europe to their German subsidiary, Opel. Sales soared in the 1980's and the new designs culminated in the Calibra coupe and the Vauxhall Lotus Carlton saloon of the 1990's.
