The 7 hp was powered by a single-cylinder engine, using one cylinder block from the Austin 18/24 engine.[1] The resulting engine of 1099 cc produced 9 hp at 1300 rpm.Шаблон:Sfn

The press described it at its first showing as "in every detail thoroughly up-to-date. The frame is of pressed steel, a gate lever operates the gears and the finish is excellent".[2]

The car was sold for £150 but it was not a success, and production ceased after two years.Шаблон:Sfn
