Previously known for their small arms and bicycles, B.S.A. had begun motorcycle manufacture in 1910 and by the late 1920's they were the largest motorcycle producers in Britain, if not the world. It was from their factory at Small Heath that a new car emerged, and it was a three-wheeler designed by F.W. Hulse using the Hotchkiss 1021cc twin cylinder engine. It was a competitor to the Morgan three-wheeler and although less sporting it was more comfortable and easier to drive. The model's popularity resulted in the factory soon producing some 2,000 examples per annum. Within a few years, BSA was offering a whole range of front-engine, front-wheel drive three-wheeled microcars to suit all requirements, from a Sports model to a Family one with child seats in the rear. Prices ranged from around £100 to £125 and BSA three-wheeler production continued sometime after the introduction of its four-wheeled Scout model of 1934.

This wonderful and well restored BSA Three-Wheeler is powered by the 1021cc petrol engine. It has recently been subject to a rewire which included a 12v conversion, with receipts for the work on file. Presenting well with great paintwork and solid bodywork, the BSA is offered with a UK V5C and other paperwork.
