Mann Egerton & Company was a British aerospace and automotive company founded in 1905 and headquartered in Norwich. The company’s operations varied between auto retailing, coach building, aircraft manufacturing and electrical services. The first custom car body by Mann Egerton was made for Rolls-Royce in 1909. During World War I, Mann Egerton was requested to build aero planes and the company later produced their own Type B model, based on the Short Type 184 they had developed under license. During World War II, Mann Egerton was making car bodies for the government, including the coachwork for the Austin K2/Y ambulance. The electrical department of the company was sold to the Westinghouse Brake and Signal Company in 1964, Inchcape acquired Mann Egerton in 1973 and the coach building business was sold to Bonallock Coachbuilders.
