Newton-Bennett

The Newton-Bennett was a car advertised and sold by a Manchester, England, based company between 1911 and 1925, but made in Italy.

[1] In 1907 they became agents for the Italian SCAT and Harper was sent to Turin to help develop a car specifically to be sold by Newton-Bennett, but this never got beyond a prototype.

In 1914, the name changed to Newton but the outbreak of World War I and a large increase in import duties seem to have stopped production.

[2] A Newton car was advertised again post war as the Ten, this time with a smaller 1086 cc engine with twin overhead camshafts.

[1] The car had a 2155 cc four-cylinder, water-cooled, side-valve engine[2] This was directly attached to a four-speed gearbox and then by shaft to the rear axle.
