 Newton Bennett 12hp Tourer 1913

That was quick!. The car is captioned as that, and you get the point. According to the Beaulieu Encyclopedia the car should be called an N.B. at this stage of the company's existence, but I won't insist on that for the Rookies section!

Happily it's not in the NMM any more and I seem to recall we Dated it for its current owner as a 1914 Newton Bennett.
Opinionated but sometimes wrong
