Make BRASIER

Model Year of Manufacture 1908

Engine Size (cc) 11762

Brasier was a French make, long defunct. With a name like that you might have expected it to have independent front suspension, but it didn't.

Thought I saw something on this site in the past, that BS numbers never went above 8000, or am I wrong .....

They stoped at BS 7777 - BS 9000+ plates are asigned to veteran vehicles which might be missing their original index mark.

Took a picture of this car at a car show near Ilminster in Somerset in August 2010. Where does it come from? It only stayed for a little while and then roared off never to be seen again!

Saw this vehicle near Taunton, Somerset in sept 2010 at the Thornfalcon Rally. What a beast !
Only recently identified the make.
