DETAILS

The EH heralded big mechanical changes, in the form of the new “red” engine, which boasted a bigger bore and shorter stroke, plus a higher compression ratio, to boost output to almost double that of 1948’s FX. The Premier variant included a metallic Magic-Mirror finish, narrow-band whitewall tyres, wheel trim rings and front fender chrome wind splits. Inside was luxurious leather upholstery, a white steering wheel, carpet on the floor, a folding rear seat armrest and chrome sill plates. As well as the car badge, the stamp design features a background photograph of an EH in a suburban setting.
