Description: | The label is rectangular and has a gradiated orange background with a black and white image of the product in the centre. The words 'For High Speed Performance Fit A Lucas Sports Coil' are printed in black and white. Lucas was established by Joseph Lucas in Birmingham, in 1872. This was the same year that the petrol engine was first patented - 14 years ahead of the first Mercedes 'horseless carriage' and 27 years before the Ford Model T. Lucas has been trading continuously for over 125 years and is world famous as a supplier of automotive products for both vehicle manufacturers and the aftermarket.
