Lammas Ltd

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Lammas Ltd. was a British automobile manufacturer in Sunbury-on-Thames (Middlesex) . Between 1936 and 1938, sporty upper middle class sedans with supercharged Graham engines were built there.

The Lammas-Graham 3½-liter Supercharged presented in 1936 had a side-controlled six-cylinder in-line engine with supercharging . Of 3.7 l capacity, he drew 128 bhp (94 kW) at 4400 min -1 . The wheelbase of the 4801 mm long and 1829 mm wide car was 2946 mm, its track width was 1549 mm. The chassis weighed 914 kg.

In 1938, in the last year of production, he was given the slightly less motorized Lammas-Graham 3-liter Supercharged . His otherwise identical engine had a displacement of only 3249 cc. Chassis and vehicle dimensions corresponded to the larger model.

In the same year, however, the brand disappeared again from the market.
