Many years ago i saw a car, I think it may have been a Rover, which used
a long handle to open or close the window. It was a very simple solution

Yes, I remember those. And it not being so easy to just crack the window
open.

Anyone remember this? If so what model featured it.


I'd say pre WW2, and possibly immediately after.

Well into the 60s I think, electric windows were exotic extras back
then.


Rovers which crossed 1960 in production would have been the P4 and P5.
Both had conventional window winders.
