Vintage, PVT & 2 Litre Forum / A.C. Royal Roadster

Thank you very much. It is very helpful to have this information.
   I have bought the car now. I love the design, mechanics and the history. It’s a very special car.
   Have you many AC Empire in your club register? Have you any idea how many car still exist?
   The car needs just new paint. After a detailed check I will see where the car needs some work.
   Maybe I need some parts for the car, can you approve me any parts dealer from UK?

Hi
   Thank you for your information.
   I will visit the old man soon and I let you know more details in chassis and engine numbers.
   Maybe you found something. As I know, the car was imported from the UK 20 years ago.

Dear Members
   My name is Daniel and I'm from Switzerland.
   I hope someone can help me.
   I have the possibility to buy a A.C. Royal Roadster 1922.
   An old men who owned the car for many years is thinking to sell the car.
   The car is in good condition. Paint has some crack but mechanically the car is in very good. Just pass Swiss MOT view weeks ago.
   Unfortunately I have absolutely no knowledge about such a car.
   Are there any books on the marked?
   Have anyone information about how many car was produced?
   Is there a market for such cars? I have no idea about the price situation. I like the car but price must be fair.
   I hope someone can help me with information about the car.
   Thank you very much.
