Hailed as "a completely new make of motorcycle", Raynal arrived in 1937, its first offering being the Auto, an autocycle powered by the 98cc Villiers Junior engine commonly found in such machines. The latter went into an open ladies-style frame equipped with sprung bicycle-type front fork and hub brakes. A maximum speed of 30mph and fuel economy averaging 140 miles per gallon were claimed. A cheaper Popular model with un-sprung fork was added for 1939, the Auto being renamed De Luxe. Production ceased towards the end of 1950. Apparently a well executed older restoration, this example is offered without documents.
