Pourtant, comme chacun le sait, les moteurs Villiers ont vu le jour Outre-Manche. Leur popularité dans l'hexagone est sans doute due au fait qu'ils ont équipé bon nombre de modèles de la gamme Monet Goyon, cette marque mâconnaise les ayant même fabriqué sous licence.
An article mostly about Cotton motorcycles...
The Cotton works continued their light engineering work after the 1939-1945 War and made no effort to re-enter the motorcycle market, although spares were still supplied for existing machines. The firm was in somewhat dire straits by the 1950s, and Mr. Cotton decided to retire. It was re-constituted as E. Cotton (Motorcycles) Ltd. under the direction of Pat Onions and Monty Denley.
Villiers Engineering Co. was established in 1898 and is still operating in Wolverhampton, England, where they were founded. Many Australian engines were made in Ballarat, Victoria. They made engines for motorcycles, lawn mowers and various stationary engines.
