Bio
Caroline always refers to her driver as "Master". She does not like high speeds as they overheat her motor. She also disliked engines until Stepney brought her back to the Elsbridge cricket field, at which time she admitted engines had their uses (in her own words, saving "the wear and tear on a poor car's wheels").

Caroline later helped the Fat Controller to Lady Hatt's birthday, until she broke down again.

Basis
Caroline is based on a 1941/1928 Oxford Cabriolet "Bull-nosed" Morris Oxford.

Livery
