Automobiles M. Berliet, of 40, Sackville Street, Piccadilly, London, W.’, make a special chassisior sports use, known as the 15-50 h.p. de Luxe. The engine is a four, of bore and stroke 78 mm. and 130 mm., the R.A.C. rating being 15.1 h.p. The valves are overhead, operated by push rods and rocker arms, from a cam shaft within the body of the crank case. Pressure lubrication is applied to the crank shaft and also to the overhead valve gear. The clutch is a multi-disc, and the gear box, which is mounted in one unit with the engine, embodies four speeds and a reverse. The power unit is three point, suspended in the frame. The rear axle is a semi-floating one, and the final drive gears are spiral bevels. Four-wheel brakes are standard on this model, and semi-elliptic springs. Altogether the chassis seems to be admirably adapted for sports use, and looks as though it could give a very good account of itself. Its price is f,450.
