The British Staff Car 8HP Forlite was based on the Austin 8 range and introduced in 1939. It was powered by a 900cc side valve engine form the previous Big Seven model. Before WWII the civilian version was available as a 2 door tourer or 4 door saloon. During WWII the army used both as staff cars with production continuing during WWII and until 1947 although only as the 4 door saloon after the war. Over 20,000 were produced with over 9,000 in military service with the militray and government. An unusual kit ideally suited to wargaming or just building for display. Requires construction
