This wonderful 1951 Vauxhall Caleche Velox L Series Tourer is in excellent restored condition. The Caleche model was built in Australia by General Motors using the 6 cylinder Vauxhall Velox mechanical components and an all Australian Holden 5 seat convertible body. Only a few of this model were built, as GM production was centred around the all new Holden 48/215 (FX). The Vauxhall Velox Caliche has a OHV 6 cylinder engine 2275cc with around 54bhp and a 3 speed column change gearbox, "Dubonet" style independent front suspension and good hydraulic brakes, with a top speed of 74 mph. It was known as a good reliable car with excellent ride and economy.A practical way to enjoy classic motoring, this is a rare model, only made for the Australian market, only a few survive.
