Herbert Austin of the Wolseley Sheep Shearing company had stated an interest in developing an Automobile as early as 1895, working on his own in his own time he developed and built three different design cars none of which were commercially viable. The Wolseley Sheep Shearing company duly lost interest and withdrew finances. Thomas and Albert Vickers, directors of Vickers and Maxim, Britain's largest armaments manufacturer, had much earlier decided to enter the industry at the right moment and, impressed by Austin's achievements at WSSMC, they took on his enterprise. By the time Austin's five-year contract officially ended in 1906 they had made more than 1,500 cars. Wolseley was the largest British motor manufacturer and Austin's reputation was made.

Engines were horizontal which kept the centre of gravity low. Cylinders were cast individually and arranged either singly, in a pair or in two pairs which were horizontally opposed. The crankshaft lay across the car allowing a simple belt or chain-drive to the rear live axle:

The Wolseley Tool and Motor Car Company of Adderley Park Birmingham was incorporated in March 1901 with a capital of £40,000 by Vickers, Sons and Maxim to manufacture motor cars and machine tools. The managing director was Herbert Austin. The cars and the Wolseley name came from Austin's exploratory venture for The Wolseley Sheep Shearing Machine Company Limited, run since the early 1890s by the now 33-year-old Austin. During the winter of 1895–96, working in his own time at nights and weekends, he made his own version of a design by Léon Bollée that he had seen in Paris but later found that another British company had bought the rights. In 1897 Austin's second Wolseley car, the Wolseley Autocar No. 1 was revealed, a three wheeled car (one front, two rear) featuring independent rear suspension, mid-engine and back to back seating for two adults. It was not successful and although advertised for sale, none were sold. The third Wolseley car, the four-wheeled Wolseley Voiturette followed in 1899this proved to be the basis of the first Wolseley available to the public, going on sale in 1901but by now the board of the Wolseley Sheep Shearing Co. had lost interest in developing a motor car selling their interests to Vickers and Maxim. When Austin's five-year contract officially ended in 1906 they had made more than 1,500 cars. Wolseley was the largest British motor manufacturer and Austin's reputation was made.

Winton was founded by Scottish engineer Alexander Winton as a cycle manufacturing company, in Cleveland, Ohio. In 1896 he built a two cylinder car which went into production in 1897. A 3.8 litre model was entered in the 1900 Gordon Bennet race, and in 1903 Dr. H Nelson became the first motorist to complete a trans-American drive in his Winton twin cylinder phaeton which he named after his native state, from San Francisco to New York City. The trip took 64 days with rest stops and delays awaiting parts and even manually hoisting the car over gully's.

A four cylinder model appeared in 1904. By 1906 production concentrated on the 5801cc 30hp Model K, an even larger 40hp appeared in 1907, cars continued to grow in size and sophistication but by 1924 the company decided to cease vehicle production to concentrate on producing marine Diesel engines

Talbot - was originally founded in 1903 to sell French imported Clemment-Bayard cars under the Talbot brand. Financed by Charles Chetwyn-Talbot (20th earl of Shrewsbury) and Adolphe Clemment. Imports of the Clemment began in 1900 as Clemment-Talbots. By late 1904 its factory in Ladbrooke Grove, North Kensington began assembling cars from French components and the Clemment part of the name was dropped. Domestic designed Talbots followed from 1906.

Taken over in 1919 by the British owned French based Darracq, the Talbots becoming known as Talbot-Darracq and re-organised as part of the Sunbeam-Talbot-Darracq conglomerate. In 1935 STD collapsed being taken over by group with the French factory being bought by Anthony Lago, Talbot who used the brand name Lago-Talbot in France. Whereas in Britain Sunbeam-Talbot.

Production of the Talbot (British) continued until WW2 and resumed in 1946 until the Talbot name was dropped in 1955.
In France the Lago-Talbot continued until 1960 before being purchased by Simca

In 1967 Chrysler took over Rootes Group and merged it with Simca under the banner Chrysler Europe the Talbot brand name was used on Finnish produced Horizon, Solara and the 1510 models.
In 1978 Peugeot took over Chrysler Europe using the Talbot name to re badge the former Rootes and Simca products a situation that continued until the brand was once again phased out in 1985 in all but Finland were production of the Horizon continued until 1986 ending Talbot passenger cars. Although the name lived on with the Talbot Express panel van until the end of production in 1992

Sunbeam was a marque registered by John Marston Co. Ltd of Wolverhampton, England, in 1888. The company first made bicycles,[hen motorcycles and cars from the late 19th century until about 1936, and applied the marque to all three forms of transportation.
A Sunbeam was the first British car to win a Grand Prix race, and set a number of land speed records. The company went into receivership in 1935 and was purchased by the Rootes Group, which continued to use the Sunbeam marque.
The first production car named as a Sunbeam was introduced in 1901, after a partnership with Maxwell Maberley-Smith. The Sunbeam-Mablerey design was an odd one, with seats on either side of a belt-drive powered by a single-cylinder engine of less than 3 hp .
The Sunbeam went on to build, cars, trucks and trolley buses

Star was founded by the Lisle family in 1893 originally as Sharratt and Lisle to make bicycles, changing its name to Star Cycle Company in 1896. The first cars appeared in 1898 (and the Star Motor Company was registered) a 3.5hp model selling for £189 and produced at the rate of one per week. by 1900 production had risen to 20 per week, now with several premises in the Wolverhampton area.

In 1891 Lisle had adopted a 6 pointed star as their logo which led to a successful suit against Mercedes in 1902 where it was found they had infringed Star's copyright with their 3 or 4 pointed star emblem.

The original Star Bicycle company run by Lisle's son also called Edward had by now moved into motorcycle production and produced their first car the Starling in 1907, which later became the Briton motor Company to avoid any confusion.
Star were keen exporters to South Africa, Australia and to New Zealand as well as active motor sport participants. Winning the Transvaal Automobile Club hillclimb and the New Zealand Hillclimb championships. Together with good results in the Irish Reliability Trials and class wins in the Scottish Automobile Club trials.

During WW1 the company made a large number of trucks for the army and undertook work on aircraft engines. By 1920 the production of Star and Briton had reached 1000 cars per year, but 1922 the Briton brand was gone, the victim of the post war slump. They were purchased by C.A. Weight but their last four models were exported to Australia in 1929.
Further Star models were introduced throughout the 1920's. In 1928 the company was sold to Guy Motors who wanted to add car production to their range of heavy commercial vehicles and Star relocated to a new factory in Bushbury, Wolverhampton near to the Clyno factory, but faced with mass produced competition, new models began to prove uneconomical. In 1932. The 'Comet', 'Planet' and 'Jason' models were introduced in 1930, the 18/50 hp. 'Jason' proving the most popular, selling at £595. Various versions of these models were released, including coupés, limousines and tourers. However a loss was still being made on every model sold and with Guy having their own financial troubles they could not afford to modernise Star's Bushbury plant. With nowhere left to turn a receiver was appointed for Star in March 1932

The Stanley twins, F. E. and F. O. Stanley built their first car as hobby project in 1897, after they had sold their photographic plate business to Kodak. The car was an instant hit and the brothers started to receive customer orders, to the extent that a batch of 200 steam buggies was commenced, but they were promptly bought out for $ 250,000 by a consortium to build the design as the Locomobile.
So back to the drawing board and the brothers came up with an improved design with a twin cylinder engine geared directly to the back axle. Going into production in 1901 the fire tube boiler was eventually shifted to the front under the trademark Stanley coffin nose bonnet.
In 1906 a racing Stanley Steamer exceeded 127 mph on Ormond Beach, Daytona. By 1907 the production Roadster could reach 75mph
The Stanley Brother continued at the helm of the company until 1917, succeeded by Prescot Warren who remained until 1924, but the company never recovered from the post WW1 slump, the company was taken over by the Steam Vehicle Corporation of America but it is unlikely that any further vehicles were built, and they ceased trading in 1927

On 15 October 1997, 50 years and 1 day after the sound barrier was broken in aerial flight by Chuck Yeager, Green reached 763.035 miles per hour (1,227.986 km/h), the first supersonic record (Mach 1.016). His call sign was DEAD DOG As the vehicle exceeded the speed of sound it created a sonic boom.
