Lancasters were British cars, in the same class as Rolls & Bentleys, but the guy who designed & was the head dude of the company was "Different..." they had tiller steering, you sat in them about the same height as if you were standing, he felt you could judge distances better that way, the motors were made rather narrow, & ran longitudinally thru the passenger compartment, consequentially, they were quite roomy, there were several other quirks about their overall design. Few remain, I dunno if many, if any have survived out of England. Especially the really early ones, they were as ODD as latter day Saabs were-Maybe even more so.
