An old and rare car
Imran chose the BSA Tourer car at the Museum Collections Centre as his favourite object:

“This is an old car used a very very very very long time ago. I also like the green colour and it is made out of metal, wood, glass and the wheels are made from rubber.”

This car was built in about 1912 by the Birmingham Small Arms company – a weapons manufacturer which later made bicycles and motorbikes as well as guns. However, BSA did not make cars for very long, so this one is quite unusual.
