Contact seller5-star sellerSoft cover. Condition: Very Good Plus. 1st Edition. Apparent First Edition (NAP). Issued 1959. The blue plastic covers are in excellent condition, very clean, one light crease at the rear top corner. The gilt lettering on the front is pretty bright. The book is in very nice condition. But what makes this offering special is the…presence of the service fold-out. It's 27 by 19 inches. I've provided a photograph. It slips into the front pocket of the covers. It's in very nice condition. It does have one 4 1/2 inch clean tear at the middle fold coming up from the bottom edge. There are also some penned circles and underlining on the right side column which is titled Periodical Attention. The book is very solidly bound from cover to cover with nicely tight pages. It's a stapled binding. These pages are glossy and, in the main, quite clean. There is one spot at the bottom edge of the title page, and one other small spot at the bottom edge of the following Index page and a few more on the two subsequent pages. After that I found only two or three spots over the entirety of the book which runs 88 pages. There is no foxing. There is a spot of soiling on the middle page edge. However, it has no effect on the actual pages. The pages are also in solid condition. There is a light top corner crease over the latter pages, due to the aforementioned bump/crease at the top corner of the rear cover. I'm not seeing any turned-down or placeholder corner creases. I found two tiny edge tears, far from the print. There are no markings. No attachments. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the handbook. As would be expected there are a good many illustrations throughout the book. They are all in excellent condition. 'The Humber Super Snipe is a car which was produced from 1938 to 1967 by British-based Humber Limited. In October 1959 the Series II entered production with its engine enlarged to 3 litres, 2,965 cc, by increasing the bore to 87.2 mm (3.4 in). A new Zenith carburettor was fitted and the engine's output was raised to 129 bhp at 4800 rpm. A new eight-bladed fan improved engine cooling. Girling 11.5 in (292 mm) disc brakes were introduced on the front wheels with 11 in (279 mm) drums on the rear axle. A stiffer anti-roll bar was fitted to the front suspension. A Series II with overdrive and power steering was tested by The Motor in 1960 and had a top speed of 94.7 mph (152.4 km/h) and could accelerate from 0-60 mph (97 km/h) in 16.5 seconds. A fuel consumption of 24.6 miles per imperial gallon (11.5 L/100 km; 20.5 mpg-US) was recorded. The test car cost £1,601 including taxes. The basic car cost £1453.'.

Add to basketCondition: Good. Original wraps. 12pp. 18.5 x 26cm.The external appearance of the Humber Super Snipe is "expensive," indeed palatial, in the less lurid style and the interior arrangement in keeping. The deep, soft, leather-upholstered seats with their high squabs, the generous leg room, and the wide doors contribute all that the… moat fastidious could ask for in the way of creature comfort. The car rides comfortably, too. We hurled it over a rutted, potholed road and gave it full marks. On normal roads pitching is entirely absent, shocks are well absorbed, and the nose does not wallow under heavy retardation. This comfort factor is extended to the Super Snipe's appointments. Going briskly through them, you have excellent visibility from the side and rear windows, which include front half-windows and pivoted ventilator panels front and back. You have a good Clayton heater and demister, H.M.V. radio, a deep facia locker with an excellent lid, two screen visors with washable finger-grips and a mirror in the passenger's, cigarette lighter, big, strong leather door pockets, a wide parcels-shelf behind the rear seat, a big ashtray in the back of the front-seat squab, leather-lined "pulls" for the rear-seat passengers, a roof light of adequate power which comes on whenever a door is opened, deep fold-up central arm-rests as well as side-rests front and back, and a good sliding roof. The driver appreciates the clear speedometer and "service" dials on a wooden panel with concealed lighting, the separate ignition key which also locks the driver's door, electric clock, large non-dazzle central rear-view mirror, the effective wind-tone horns, reversing-lamps, fog-lamps, underbonnet-lamp, twin screen wipers with large control knobs, steering-wheel control of dimmer and indicators, the latter cancelling effectively, the big rear window, and the clever three-spoke, non-sprung steering wheel with one spoke of tubular steel.

Auszug: Der Sunbeam Rapier war das erste Modell der ¿Audax¿-Reihe von Fahrzeugen der unteren Mittelklasse der Rootes Group. Er wurde zur Motor Show im Oktober 1955 vorgestellt und kam so einige Monate vor seinen Schwestermodellen Hillman Minx und Singer Gazelle heraus. Das viersitziges Hardtop-Coupé mit 2 Türen war ein vollkommen anderes Auto als der Sunbeam Mark III, den er ersetzte. Die erste Generation hieß ¿Series I¿ und ¿Series II¿ kam 1958 heraus. Obwohl das Fahrzeug innerhalb der Rootes Group entwickelt wurde, war das Design durch die Konstruktionsabteilung um Raymond Loewy vom neuen Studebaker-Coupé von 1953 beeinflusst. Sunbeam Rapier Series IDer Sunbeam Rapier Series I war ein hübsches Auto, das im Allgemeinen von den Motorjournalisten gut beurteilt wurde. Er war in einigen attraktiven, für diese Zeit typischen Zweifarbenlackierungen erhältlich und hatte Lenkradschaltung, Lederausstattung und Overdrive als Serienausstattung. Ein Vinyldach gab es in Großbritannien als Sonderausstattung, in einigen Exportmärkten wurde es serienmäßig geliefert. Die Rapier-Karossierien wurden von der Pressed Steel Company hergestellt, zu Thrupp and Maberley im Norden von London transportiert, wo sie lackiert und ausgestattet wurden, und dann erneut zu Rootes nach Ryton-on-Dunsmore bei Coventry transportiert, wo Motor, Getriebe und Antriebsstrang eingebaut wurden! Diese umständliche Fertigung blieb bis ins Spätjahr 1963 erhalten, als der ¿Series IV¿ eingeführt wurde. Der 1390 cm - Motor des Rapier war im Wesentlichen der gleiche, der auch im Hillman Minx eingebaut wurde, hatte aber eine höhere Verdichtung (8:1 anstatt 7:1), einen Stromberg-Vergaser, Typ DIF 36, und andere Ansaug- und Auspuffkrümmer. So ausgestattet entwickelte er 62,5 bhp (46 kW) bei 5000/min., beschleunigte den Wagen in ca. 23 sec. von 0 bis 100 km/h und ließ ihn eine Höchstgeschwindigkeit von 137 km/h erreichen. Obwohl die Fahrleistungen des Rapier in der damaligen Zeit recht ansprechend waren und seine Fahreigensch.
