Marlborough-Thomas
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Marlborough-Thomas (possibly a.k.a. Marlborough) was a British car manufactured in a garage at Brooklands, Weybridge, Surrey between 1923 and 1924. It was a joint venture between T.B. André and J. G. Parry-Thomas from Wales, but only a handful of cars were made.[1]
The 1493 cc four-cylinder engine had leaf spring valve gear as used on the Leyland Eight which Parry Thomas was also involved with. The car had an advanced specification with torsion bar suspension and four-wheel brakes. There was also a promised version with a double overhead cam engine. The cars were advertised at £575 but few appear to have reached customers.[2]
