Scout 14 hp (1905)

Scout Motors was a British automobile manufacturer based in Salisbury, Wiltshire from 1904 to 1920 .

The company made mid-range cars with sturdy four- and six-cylinder engines that were known to be reliable. An early model, the 12 hp produced in 1908 and 1909 , had a two-cylinder engine. The mark was only common in the west of Great Britain.

After the First World War , the company ran into economic difficulties and only released two medium-sized four-cylinder models with pre-war technology. In 1920 she had to cease operations forever.
