Mayor’s car should have British roots
10:51am Thursday 31st May 2012 in Readers' Letters
I WAS pleased to note your editorial comment (Daily Echo, Saturday, May 19) which endorsed the continued supply, and use of, a suitable car for the mayor of Southampton.
The photograph on page 19 of the same issue showed a splendid view of the Austin Limousine provided in 1957 for civic duties.
I do have one proviso, the vehicle should be of a make which can trace its origins back to Great Britain. A car we could be proud of with the registration number TR 1.
D.M., Southampton.

An alternative would be to have a horse drawn gypsy caravan.
