1908 Vulcan 20HP Roi-des-Belges

The 1908 Vulcan 20HP Roi-des-Belges was a luxury car manufactured by the Vulcan Motor and Engineering Company in the United Kingdom. It was named "Roi-des-Belges" after the body style, which was popularized by Belgian coachbuilder Henri Van Rijswijck.

The car was powered by a 20 horsepower engine and had a top speed of around 50 miles per hour. It featured a luxurious interior, with a leather-upholstered bench seat in the front and a smaller bench seat in the back. The car also had large, spoked wheels and a sleek, streamlined body.

The Vulcan 20HP Roi-des-Belges was known for its high quality and craftsmanship, and was a popular choice among wealthy buyers of the time. It was also used in competition, with notable success in hillclimbing events.

Today, the Vulcan 20HP Roi-des-Belges is considered a rare and valuable collector's item, with only a few examples known to exist.
