1937 Austin 7 Ruby | Rugby, Warwickshire

A 1937 Austin 7 Ruby, a late version of the Baby Austin, which became one of Britain's most popular small cars. Within the Seven line it counts among the most refined, and it is liked for its small, upright, friendly shape. This car is green outside and green inside, a single shade that sits well against brick, stone and country settings. It seats four and is in good condition. Its compact body leaves the location around it in view, which helps when the setting matters as much as the car. Its 1930s outline gives advertising, film and TV, photography and fashion and editorial work a period car that needs no explaining, and the green keeps one calm colour in frame. At events and in music videos, its small scale adds character beside modern vehicles. Weddings and birthday hires also work well. The car is based in Rugby, Warwickshire.
