From an interest in motor vehicles beginning in 1896, the motor division of Humber Ltd became much more important than the cycle and motorcycle divisions, and by 1913 were second only to Wolseley as the largest motorcar manufacturer in Britain.
This example is delightfully rare and unrestored (though repainted) and retains all of the original fittings such as the lighting set. An easy car to drive and start on the handle, it remained a favourite of the vendor’s in his Humber range. See video to see engine running.
