A documentary chatelaine for Egidia Lady Rendlesham (1843-1880) possibly for archery, comprising a four section leather belt with monogramed clasp with two ring mounts each mounted with two chains to a note book, an ebony and metal mounted silver bucket, a leather and metal mounted hinged barrel with internal pin storage rim and a circular leather container, all bearing the ER monogram below a coronet, sold with memoriam booklet and photograph of Lady Rendlesham. It seems likely that this 'chatelaine' is for archery, the bucket was probably for grease which helped the finger protectors or shooting glove slide more easily off the bow string, the circular leather container for printed paper bulls-eye cards to record individual scores, the barrel with its internal pin ring is probably to house shillings - three golds (arrows in the centre) entitled a competitor to receive a shilling from each opponent. Archery was one of the few sports open to ladies and provided opportunities for them to mix socially with the opposite sex without a chaperone. From the collection of Enid Riley Part 1

The MG version had twin SU carburettors and developed 54 bhp at 4500 rpm. Drive was to the live rear axle via a four-speed manual gearbox with synchromesh on the top three ratios.

Suspension was by half-elliptic springs all round with a live rear axle and beam front axle. Luvax shock absorbers were fitted, the rear ones adjustable from the dashboard. There were only 2,407 VA’s of all body types produced prior to production ending which ensures that these vehicles today remain rare and collectable.This car was purchased by the late deceased owner in April 2001, unfortunately no history is available although it saw regular use up until his death, no record of expenditure can be found. From the DVLA records the last pass MOT recorded was on the 28/06/2007 at a mileage of 88,118.This rare tourer presents in a sound and solid condition, having had fresh fuel and a new battery the car started instantly.
