THE CORONET

The world's finest three wheel car first appeared on the forecourts back in 1957. Created by the prolific microcar designer, David Gottleib, the Coronet was to add a touch of style to the microcar genre. Originally manufactured in Denham Bucks by Coronet Cars, production was subsequently moved to the larger James Whitson factory in West Drayton, just outside London.
