Description
It is with a heavy heart that we offer for sale our beloved 1930 Hotchkiss AM2 Saloon, a car that has been part of our family’s story for many years
This lovely, honest example of French craftsmanship is presented in a sophisticated Burgundy over Black colour scheme, complemented by a luxurious Beige velour interior. The AM2’s elegant lines, vintage charm and rarity make it a standout in any setting, whether at a local car event or a leisurely Sunday drive to the local steam railway or afternoon tea stop.
Our Hotchkiss has been lovingly cared for by a gifted engineer, ensuring every mechanical need has been met with precision. The engine has been upgraded with steel rods for added durability, making this car as reliable as it is beautiful. It has proven its reliability time and again, having completed countless miles across the UK and Europe without a hitch
Equipped with a four-speed gearbox and 2. 400 4 cylinder, long stroke engine, the AM2 comfortably cruises at 50-55 mph, making it perfect for both short jaunts and longer tours. Its twin wing-mounted spare wheels, windscreen-mounted search lamp, and classic luggage trunk with cases add to its vintage presence.
This car is a well known vehicle member of the vintage car community, particularly within the Cotswold area and among members of the Hotchkiss Register Club. It is well-known and admired by enthusiasts, and often becomes a talking point wherever she arrives.
To ensure its continued care, the car will come with a selection of spare parts, helping its next owner maintain its fantastic quality and reliability. We are looking for a caring new owner who will appreciate this Hotchkiss AM2 as much as we have. It has been a source of pride and joy for our family, and we hope it will continue to bring the same to its next custodian.
