			The '''Triumph Mayflower''' was an attempt by [[Triumph]] to make a luxury car out of components that were usually employed in making small, economy vehicles. This was due in part to the difficulty in getting parts and materials to build such vehicles. The most discussed feature of the Mayflower is its unique razor-edge styling. [[Sir John Black]], Chariman of Standard Triumph, wanted this type of styling because he was told by Louis Antweiller, Managing Director of Mulliners, that Americans loved [[Rolls Royce]]s. He decided to name the car Mayflower to appeal to Americans who were descendants of the pilgrims who landed in Massachusetts in 1620. The Mayflower was also the first to produced by Triumph after its acquisition by the Standard Motor Company.
