Interesting thread this. I vaguely remember my grandfather had one of those DAF cars. Only ever seen one since, at a classic car show. As for the Lomax, I had one for a couple of years. It had a lovely four spoke steering wheel from a 1930s sports car, and a few other quirks which escape me. I bought it for £3500, but didn't use it enough, so sold it a couple of years later for the same amount. I had a small book on the history of Lomax cars, but let it go with the car. Saw a couple at a local classic show recently, and they are worth about £5000, according to the owner I spoke too. I have a friend in NI with a similar type three wheeler called a Black jack. 2CV engined again, but more modern looking.
There were some amazing high end vintage cars, including Bentleys, Lagondas, and many specials at the recent Chateau Impney Hillclimb, near Droitwich There was full public access around the pits, and I found the owners very friendly to chat too, but you could almost 'smell the money'. Some serious machinery there, and a fantastic day out
