CASTLE THREE / UK

Original Castle Three radiator emblem
The CASTLE THREE was a British three wheeled cycle car made from 1919 to 1921. The car was aimed at the top end of the cyclecar market and so was fitted with a four-cylinder water-cooled engine.
The car was exhibited at the 1919 London  Motor Show and a reputed 2,300 orders were taken.
Not all of these were confirmed and it is estimated that around 350 were made so the emblem is very hard to find. Only two cars are known to survive.

Dimensions5.6 cm

Year 1919 -1921
