1901 Progress
An absolute masterpiece of motor car preservation is this 1901 four seater, made by The Progress Cycle Co. of Coventry and registered M 115. Although described as a "four-seater" the presence of the two extra vis-à-vis passengers must have made the driver's forward vision challenging!
This priceless example of the 500 made by the company during it's short existence is believed to be one of only two remaining today.
The Progress Cycle Co. started making cars in 1898 and went into liquidation in 1903.
The car was at Beamish for the Steam Gala event on 9/10 April 2022.
