You have no idea how many times young guys ask me if it is a singer
( if they looked closer at the fit and finish as well as some of the more obvious styling cues they would know it's not)

My point is that as these old cars fade into obscurity, Singer has brought the styling of these old cars back into consciousness. I think they have done a wonderful job marketing their brand.
Couldn't agree more. Singer's attention to detail is absolutely amazing. Supurb marketing with the price guaranteeing that they will be owned only by a few. Wish I had the money to buy one. I wouldn't of course, but 1/2 million more in my portfolio would be nice.

I still remember the paranoia attached to driving an irreplaceable and valuable car. I have no desire to feel that again.
