- Wilks' cars P1 and P2, thats cars up to 1947 • Re: P2 tourer AJV14 from Brightwells March 2024Now I have the car (and the keys - don't ask). It appears very original...no sign of previous restoration., just lots of use and (I hope) regular maintenance.. Many small differences to my other car (no 110).
