1940-ish Rytecraft Scoota-truck
mfg by British Motor Boat Mfg. Co. Ltd.
Britannia House, Ampton Street, London
if you wish to call them, try TERMINUS 6361
send all telegrams and cables to Brimotobo, London

This particular photo comes from a promotional brochure.
Hill climbing was described as "unspectacular" but normal gradients could be negotiated if one was patient.
They could not haul much and never really caught on. The whole front of the vehicle was taken up by the driver's feet and since the engine was in the rear, there was little or no space for cargo. Florists were among the few businesses that found them somewhat useful.

The point is yours.
