Invicta Cars produced about 1,000 models overall. Former racing driver Captain Noel Macklin established the Invicta Car Company in 1924 to build the finest British sports cars. Powered by a Coventry Climax 4-cylinder engine, the first Invicta was finished in 1925. Later cars had a 2.5-liter straight-six Meadows engine that produced a lot of torque, and over time the engine grew in size, first to 3 liters and ultimately to 4.5 liters. Invictas were well-loved and very successful on the track and in road rallies. The company's most famous model, the S-type with its underslung chassis designed by Reid Railton, was launched at the 1930 Olympia Car Show. This configuration lowered the car's center of gravity, greatly improving its performance. Some S-Types were sold as rolling chassis, but Invicta offered standard Tourer coachwork by Carbodies of Coventry.
This coupe is one of the most unusual S-Type Invictas, having a unique fixed head body by Carbodies. The car has had just two owners since 1945, and both have used the car on an almost daily basis.
