Gilbern Cars

The Gilbern motorcar was the only motorcar to ever be produced in Wales and made use of the iconic Welsh Dragon for a badge. Over the short period of 1959 to1973 it evolved through several changes of ownership from a basic enthusiast’s sporty coupe to a gentleman’s sporting tourer. Some of the manufacturer’s models included the Gilbern GT, Gilbern Genie and Gilbern Invader - all are featured here.

With a wealth of fascinating illustrations, Michael Burgess charts the story of this remarkable company. This is an essential read for anybody with an interest in the history of British car manufacturers.
