Back

 
Brenda's first car was this light blue Powerdrive three-wheeler. It had been found by her father and was chosen as it would be cheap to run.
It was a non-runner and had to be collected from Oxford so her father asked her fiancée Malcolm to assist him. Her father towed the Powerdrive whilst Malcolm
sat in it. It was an uncomfortable ride as the roof was low and, being a three-wheeler, rolled about on the corners. Her father drove quite fast so Malcolm had to be alert.

The car turned out to be a failure as it had absolutely no power so it was sold and Brenda reverted to learning to drive in her father's Morris Oxford.
