N.B.

It is important to note that the performance given for the average 20/25 HP. is for a chassis loaded up to only 31 cwt; whereas the finished car of the partition type body weighs between 34 cwt. and 35 cwt. At this weight there would be very little difference in the performance over this test route; between the Wizard and 20/25 HP car.

Generally the Hillman Wizard is quite a pleasing car to drive and very good value for the money.
