Singer and MG were great rivals during the 1930s competing against each other on race circuits, trials stages and showrooms alike. Vying for sales with the MG T-Series, the Singer Roadster retained what was essentially the same two-door, swept tail silhouette throughout its sixteen year history (1939-1955) albeit with various stylistic tweaks along the way. The Singer Nine Roadster was a variant of the Bantam Singer Nine. After some years Singer cautiously returned to the sports tourer but not the sports car market. The open four-seater Nine Roadster appeared on the 6th March 1939 with a lightly tuned version of the larger 1074 cc overhead camshaft engine already seen in the Bantam Nine plus its three-speed gearbox.
This attractive little pre-war Roadster was exported to Jersey in 2001 and was previously UK-registered as 'HEH 623'. Having been in current ownership since 2019 the vendor has previously had the gearbox overhauled, a replacement clutch fitted, the prop shaft refurbished and 5 new tyres. The Singer will need to be registered once again in the UK with the DVLA . It is very likely that Import Duty will need to be paid, having come from Jersey. Hopefully, the original registration number will be retained in the process of registering.
PLEASE NOTE: The registration number displayed in the photographs is not included in the sale.
