Rover 12
The Rover 12 was a name given to several medium-sized family cars from the British Rover car company between 1905 and 1948.
Rover 10-12 (1905 - 1907)
The first Rover 12 was the third car the company made and was launched in 1905. It had a four-cylinder, water-cooled, side-valve, monobloc engine of 1767cc.
Rover 12 (1909 - 1910)
The new Rover 12 used a two-cylinder, water-cooled, side-valve engine of 1624cc. The chassis and rear axle of this car would go on to be used in modified form in the 1912 cars. Many of these cars saw use as Taxis.
Rover 12 (1911 - 1912)
As a complete change the 1911 Rover 12 had a Knight two-cylinder, water-cooled, sleeve-valve engine of 1882cc. This had an output of 12 bhp. It is probable that many of the engine components, if not complete engines were bought in from Daimler who held the British patent rights.
