Summary

[edit]
Description

Jowett manufactured cars from 1906-54. Their intention was to provide a low weight vehicle at a low price and with low running costs. One of their last cars, the Javelin was produced from 1947-53, a four door fastback in standard and deluxe versions. The headlights faired into the wings and sloped, curved windscreen was advanced at introduction. The company had over-reached itself, introducing too many new components and systems and failing to test them adequately. Had the Javelin been more reliable it could have propelled Jowett to new heights. As it was, only 22,700 were built. The Javelin was also assembled in Australia
