Brands of an Epoch - Jaguar »
In his youth William Lyons, who was born in Blackpool, England in 1901, had a passion for motorcycling, just like William Walmsley, who became his neighbour in 1921 and who arose furore with his self-designed side cars. From their first common enterprise in 1922, the Swallow Sidecar Company, emerged the production under the brand name Jaguar after 23 years as a consequence of the cooperation with the Standard Motor Company in Coventry. The brand name Jaguar first appeared in the name of a model for the newly developed model range of Standard Swallow Vehicles in 1935. After the end of the Second World War in 1945 they decided to take over this name from S.S. Cars Ltd.´s successful series for the whole company.
