What a gorgeous picture and ad. I don't recall ever seeing that one before.

I've no issue with the claim about a feather touch on the brakes, it's close to reality - these cars have exceptional brakes, power-boosted mechanicals. But the claim of near silence from the engine at 80+ mph, a claim also made by the British magazine The Autocar when roadtesting a 1934 1100, strikes me as a bit of hyperbole. On those rare occasions that I've had my 1100 up to 60 or 65 mph, its more than the rush of wind that I hear.
