Gaydon. BE 3 - Link to "commons.wikimedia.org" . "Four examples of the Austin 100 h.p. were constructed for the 1908 French GP, two had chain drive and two had shaft drive. Only three cars made it to the start line. Two cars made it to the finishing in 18th and 19th position. Remarkably, they were the only British cars to finish the race. This is one of the two shaft driven cars, currently part of the British Motor Heritage collection." - https://www.ultimatecarpage.com/car/762/Austin-100-h.p..html |
