Andre Howe-Davies reports: "I recently bought this wonderful and original car from the Bonhams London/Brighton Auction, now the fun starts to find the right 4 pot engine. At present it has - and had since 1908 - an unknown twin, well I believe it's a Brush twin from the earlier English company see photos, but what did it have originally? Would it be an Aster type four pot like the one Alex Brown did an article from New Zealand [see photo below]. I would like that or a Mutel / Prunel four pot to fit in at a later date. The car runs well now but with a 'four' wow!." Who can come up with some bright ideas about the correct engine for this wonderful motorcar? (Main photo courtesy Bonhams) |

Which engine would fit best a 1903 Lacoste-Battmann? (update: keep it as it is)
