The Haverhill Car

Since the early 1990s, the Courier-Cadillac has been affectionately known locally as the 'Haverhill Car'. During this time it has been used as an easily-displayed, attention-getting symbol of the local talent both in engineering and general manufacture. The car has also been used as a focus for events in Haverhill, helping to get a wider range of publicity than would otherwise have been possible, on occasions even reaching the national press.

As stated by a member of this group, who first brought the car to the attention of the local press: "The more the praise for this one-off 'redundant prototype', the greater is the credit to all those who created it. Long may Haverhill join in with the acclaim."

 

 

The 'Haverhill Car' has featured in numerous publications world-wide, nearly all of which praise every aspect of the car and its design.
