from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shamrock 12/14 hp (1907)

Shamrock was a British automobile brand that was only acquired by S. Straker & Squire Ltd. in 1907 . was made in Fishponds ( Bristol ).

There was only one model, the 12/14 hp with a four-cylinder in-line engine, which had a displacement of 2.1 l. The open touring car had a wheelbase of 2286 mm and a track width of 1194 mm. The structure was 3175 mm long and 1416 mm wide.

The following year the Shamrock disappeared from the market, but Straker-Squire brought out a model called Shamrock under their own company name, so that it can be assumed that this was a further development of this first vehicle.
