[…] AACA Library and Research Center) SAH Journal No. 282 ⢠September / October 2016 5  So Delage looked elsewhere for sales: the right-hand drive conï¬Â guration pointed to the British Empire. We know some went to India; in 1924, the dealer in Bombay, Alcock Ashdown & Co. on Queenâs Road, ran newspaper ads with the date new models would arrive and by what ship. In Australia, high import duties encouraged most, if not all Delages to be bodied locally. Martin & King, the Melbourne coachbuilder, dis- played ï¬Â ve examples in the 1930 Melbourne Motor Show. Some were in the English style, while others displayed French inspiration.  Their 1925 French and Spanish Grand Prix wins with supercharged V12 engines encouraged Louis Delageâwho remained active in the businessâto rethink selling cars in the U.S. A very grand, very beautiful limousine, set on a long 152-inch wheelbase chassis, was sent around the world to pro- mote sales and establish agencies. It featured a 105-hp six-cylinder overhead-valve engine, four-wheel hydraulic brakes and a fascinat- ing rear suspension with ï¬Â at half-elliptic rear springs six feet long. The United States was part of this promotion, with a high proï¬Â le stop in San Francisco in March, but the $10,000 price and right-hand drive limited interestâmaking the San Francisco visit signal adieu, again, to Delageâs American ambitions.
