Noel Stokoe Bücher

Jowett cars of Bradford were well known for their pre-war models which were basic, rugged and economical in design. After the war the new all-Javelin saloon and Jupiter sportscar were announced both of which took the motoring world by storm! This book details some of prototype and experimental models which sadly, failed to make it into production.

This is a potted history of the Jowett car company's distinctive advertising from the days when owning a Jowett was cheaper than walking.

The Jowett car is perhaps the most famous marque to come out of Yorkshire. The Bradford-built cars were for the most part utilitarian but their cheapness and simplicity brought them a loyal following. The company closed its doors in 1954 but the owners club was and still is one of the most active of all. Jowetts have a loyal following still and Noel Stokoe tells here the story of the Bradford company that took on the world and even showed them how to produce simple, economical and stylish cars. My Car was a Jowett is a collection of stories and memories of the men and women who have owned one of these Yorkshire cars.
