The Regis 12 saloon when it belonged to the Bluebell Railway.

This 1934 car is the second oldest Regis to survive. As well as several private owners it belonged for a while to the Bluebell Trust, part of the Bluebell Railway in Sussex, England. The bottom picture shows the car with Dame Vera Lynn when she visited the railway. Following engine problems it was put into store by them and in 2009 was sold to a private owner who has restored it to road going condition.

The car originally had engine number JM162 but has at sometime during its life gained one of the larger JMC series 6 cylinder engines.

Chassis number is 12/100039 and engine number JMC129.
