The 1953 Standard Eight was a completely new car with unit construction and an overhead-valve engine.
Only saloon models were made
The new engine of 803 cc produced slightly less power than the outgoing larger side valve unit with 26 bhp at 4500 rpm.
The 4-speed gearbox had synchromesh on the top three ratios.
Girling hydraulic drum brakes were fitted.
To keep prices down, the car at launch was very basic with sliding windows, single windscreen wiper and no external boot lid. Access to the boot was by folding down the rear seat, which had the backrest divided in two.
At launch the car cost £481 including taxes on the home market.
