The Peel, made between 1963 and 1965. The Peel P50, was made by Peel Engineering, makers of fibre-glass fairings and boats on the Isle of Man. It sold for F199 and had a top speed of 38mph.

It was designed purely as a single seat town car and foreshadowed the more recent crop of microcars using that title. It had no reverse gear, being light enough to park manually using the handle provided at the rear. But if you had to expend a little muscle power to lift the Peel into a parking space, you certainly didn't have to spend much on petrol as lOOmpg was claimed.

The second Peel was the Trident which had two seats and a bubble top, and sold for £l89. About 100 of each were produced and 40 or so survive.
