Lightweight sports cars built by Archie Frazer Nash based on his experience with the chain-drive twin-cylinder GN cyclecar. All had four cylinder engines of 1.5 litres and chain-drive transmission, 3 forward gears and one reverse (4 forward gears became available from 1927). Initially the Plus-Power overhead valve engine was used, but this was quickly superseded by the Anzani side-valve unit. The Fast Tourer and Super Sports were similar as to chassis and bodywork, the difference being that the Super Sports had a slightly higher tuned engine.
Bodywork was often polished aluminium, left unpainted, with seats for the driver and one passenger at the front and usually a bench for another one or two behind. The spare wheel was carried vertically on the nearside running board. The last few cars in 1928 & 1929 dispensed with the running boards and carried the spare at the rear of the car. The bodywork was usually painted on these later cars.

In 1925 Archie Frazer Nash offered a more sporting model, the Boulogne, with a more highly tuned Anzani engine. A few had supercharged engines and were known as the Boulogne Vitesse. Some cars were fitted with special racing bodies but the majority had similar bodies to the Fast Tourer and Super Sports, including running boards between the mudguards until 1928.
After HJ Aldington took over from Archie Frazer Nash in 1929 the Boulogne name continued to be used for the more sporting model until the advent of the TT Replica in 1932. The cars became known as Boulogne I (with Anzani side-valve engine, often supercharged) or Boulogne II (with Meadows overhead-valve unit). Long and short chassis were available.

After HJ Aldington took over from Archie Frazer Nash in 1929 he introduced several different model names for the more touring type of Frazer Nash. They were available with both the Anzani side-valve engine and the Meadows overhead-valve engine, either in a lower state of tune than the Boulogne. Most customers chose the Meadows. Bodies could be fabric covered or panelled in steel. As before, two, three or four seats were available on long and short chassis – whatever the customer wanted!
