- Bow-V-Car
-
Das Bow-V-Car war ein britisches Cyclecar, das von 1922 bis 1923 von der Plycar Company Ltd. in Luton (Bedfordshire) hergestellt wurde. Der Wagen wurde von Charles Frederick Beauvais entworfen, der später als Designer beim Stellmacher New Avon Body Company bekannt wurde.
Der Wagen hatte eine aus Sperrholz bestehende Einheit aus Fahrwerk und Karosserie. Angetrieben wurde das Fahrzeug von einem hinten eingebauten 10 bhp-(7,4 kW)-V2-Motor von Precision, der mit einem Dreiganggetriebe mit Rückwärtsgang verbunden war. Von dort wurde die Motorkraft über eine Kette zu den Hinterrädern geleitet.
Mit seiner zweisitzigen, offenen Karosserie wurde der Bow-V-Car für £ 165 angeboten. Es wurden nur wenige Exemplare hergestellt.
