The car was a rebadged Plymouth P6. The mercantilist instincts of the politicians in the wake of the economic depression that had descended on the world after World War I had effectively closed the US and European auto markets to cars manufactured across the Atlantic, and even within the territories of the dissolving British Empire the Imperial Preference was being abandoned by 1938. Nevertheless, by crating up Plymouth P6s as CKD kits in Canada and shipping them to England for assembly and rebranding in Kew, the manufacturer was able to avoid import duties of, reportedly, 65%.
