A Rolls-Royce motorcar built at Hulme in 1905, on display in the main hall at the Science and Industry Museum in Manchester. It is generally accepted https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-27274508 that the Rolls-Royce partnership began following a meeting between pioneer motor car salesman Charles Rolls and expert engineer Henry Royce at Manchester's Midland hotel in 1904. This particular car was Henry Royce's personal vehicle until he sold it to an enthusiast in 1906.
