Merrall Brown Motors was a British automobile manufacturer based in Bolton, Lancashire . 1919–1921 light vehicles were built there under the name MB .

In 1919 the MB 8/10 hp appeared with an inline two-cylinder engine with a displacement of 1.0 l. Like the Isetta in the 1950s, the car had a large track width at the front and a small one at the rear, making it almost like a three-wheeled vehicle .

In the same year, a more powerful model, the MB 10 hp , replaced this model. It was designed more conventionally and had the same track width at the front and rear. The wheelbase was 2591 mm. The car was powered by a four-cylinder in-line engine with a displacement of 1.5 l.

In 1921 the brand disappeared from the market.
