Auto Gossip
British truck sales in the United States are increasing rapidly. Operators there say British vehicles are cheaper to buy and operate than similar-size American trucks, but are just as well-built and reliable. ¥ * ¥ Stirling Moss has joined the Ogle organisation, designers of the Ogle G.T. Mini-Cooper, as a director. One of his projects with the firm will be the design and production of his own ideal car, which is already well advanced on the drawing board. The car will be a 100 m.p.h. fourseater grand touring saloon powered by a IJ-litre or 2litre engine. It will have conventional suspension, manual gearchange, seat belts, fully adjustable seats, and careful silencing. “I do not like noise,” says Moss. Price will be under £2OOO.
