Moss Motor Company 

The Moss Motor Company was started in 1982 by John Cowperthwaite in Sheffield. The next few years saw the introduction of the Malvern, Roadster, Mamba and Monaco. Production was brought to an abrupt end in 1985 when a factory fire destroyed much of what had gone before including some moulds. The rights to the designs and remaining moulds were sold to Hampshire Classics in 1986 and then sold again to some members of the Moss owners club in 1987.
