Yes, the Mourre cyclecar had a licence-built Violet engine.

Nice idea, but not a Star or Rugby. The car's brand is a name of a game, though (in its home language).
Name of a game? In french? This is pretty far-fetched. Although I find it in the Robert dictionary, I had never heard of a game named mourre...

I haven't heard that name before, but almighty Wikipedia told me: "La mourre est un jeu dans lequel deux joueurs se montrent simultanément un certain nombre de doigts, tout en annonçant chacun la somme présumée des doigts dressés par les deux joueurs."
