Welcome to the website for the British Bubblecar Museum, dedicated only to microcars. The term 'Microcar' means literally a car under 700cc, although most are much smaller. Microcars, or bubble cars as they are more usually known, are a significant part of English motoring history. Lots of small manufacturers in the fifties and sixties were busily making strange little cars all over Britain and the continent.

Prominent English makers were Bond, run by Laurie Bond of Lancashire, who produced deeply strange 'mini cars'. Berkeleys of Biggleswade made amazing vehicles.

Others include the Meadows Frisky, the Peel, Reliant, AC Petite and Scootacar. There is even a bubble car maker at Hull in Yorkshire where Alan Evans produced the Bamby one seater car (we have one of these) and went into limited production.
