The designer Henry Brown is said to have sat on a Villiers engine and have an assistant draw an outline around him. The body appeared disproportionately high, measuring 60 inches on a car just 87 inches long and 52 inches wide, and was designed to carry two people, the passenger being seated behind the driver. Power on the Mark 1 came from a 197cc Villiers 9E 197 cc single-cylinder two-stroke engine coupled to a four-speed motorcycle-type gearbox and chain drive to the single rear wheel. Steering was by handlebars. The car had independent front suspension using coil springs, and the wheels were 8 in with an external spare. In 1960 came the De Luxe or Mark 2, was added with a redesigned body and space (just) for three occupants, but they came to late in the Microcar era to sell well. n 1961 the De Luxe Twin Mark 3 cars appeared fitted with a 324cc Villiers 3T twin, giving a top speed of 68 mph Production stopped in 1964 after a total of about 1000 Scootacars were made, but only about 20–30 had the larger engine.
