Lawrence, or the Lawrence of Arabia, owned seven Brough Superiors out of the 69 built before World War 2. This was not because Lawrence was a collector or George Brough’s best friend, but because Brough Superiors were considered the best motorcycles on the market at the time. Brough Superior produced some of the fastest, most exotic motorcycles at the time but was forced to shut down due to World War 2. However, the brand has been revived and remains committed to George Brough’s principles of producing exclusive, bespoke motorcycles. Today, Brough Superior offers a range of motorcycles, including the legendary SS100 and AMB 001 / Pro, and each motorcycle is nothing less than art on two wheels. While there are more exclusive, expensive, and exhilarating motorcycles available today, none come close to the experience offered by Brough Superiors. The brand’s philosophy is to create the best motorcycles in the world. While it’s a debatable topic, it’s still worth taking a moment to admire these magnificent beauties and their unique features. In order to give the most up-to-date and accurate information, the data used for this article was sourced from Brough Superior and other authoritative sources, including Motorcyclenews.com and Sons of Thunder by Neil Bradford.
When you purchase a Brough Superior, you’re not just buying a motorcycle; you’re buying something more – a chance to experience the heritage of the brand. Established by Georges Brough in Nottingham, England in 1914, Brough Superior produced motorcycles till 1940. In such a short span, the brand had made a name for itself, becoming an exotic motorcycle that was ridden by racers and TE Lawrence. The brand was relaunched by Thierry Henriette and while it may no longer be a British brand, it offers the same charm as the older Brough Superiors. Brough Superior respects its heritage through a non-conformist approach to motorcycles. Rather than establishing mass production, Georges Brough made tailored motorcycles that fit the riders’ size, weight, and preferences. Some claim that every Brough Superior SS100 came with a unique handlebar. Today, the brand continues to produce bespoke motorcycles in limited quantities, focusing on an artistic approach instead of the highest performance and top speed. The modern SS100 uses a titanium frame suspended on a Fior-type fork with titanium links, and the design is unlike any other motorcycle currently on sale. The Brough Superior SS100 is a marvel to behold, along with the AMB001 and AMB001 Pro. Georges Brough is known as one of the best motorcycle designers ever for his SS100 design back in the day. Even today, Brough Superior motorcycles feature the same silhouette as the SS100, with innovative components and a sublime V-twin engine underneath. The most modern motorcycle, the AMB 001, looks unlike anything else on the market. Its design philosophy screams purpose, and while it may polarize some onlookers, there’s no denying that Brough Superior and Aston Martin have nailed the design of the AMB001.
While exclusive motorcycles like the Ducati Superleggera V4, Aprilia Tuono V4 X, and Bimota Tesi H2 are incredible machines, they don’t hold a candle to the exclusivity of Brough Superior. Even the most common Brough Superior SS100 is only limited to 300 units, and these bikes are collectibles, likely to appreciate in value with time. Each Brough Superior comes with some level of customization, making it safe to say that no two Brough Superiors are identical. Brough Superior motorcycles are compared to Rolls-Royce, and for good reason. The motorcycles are built with top-notch quality materials and assembled with meticulous attention to detail, just like modern Rolls-Royce cars. Despite this attention to detail, the Brough Superior SS100 still offers modern handling character and performance. Brough Superior collaborated with Aston Martin to develop the race-spec turbocharged track bike duo: AMB001 and AMB001 Pro. These motorcycles are a testament to perhaps the most iconic automotive collabs ever, bringing together the expertise of two legendary manufacturers. The world’s most luxurious track bike is hand The Fiat Tipo has been discontinued in the UK as part of Fiat’s comprehensive revamp of its vehicle range. The family hatchback and estate models will be indirectly replaced by the new 600e electric crossover. With the departure of the Tipo, the only non-SUV cars currently available from Fiat in the UK are the 500 and Panda. Although it was never a significant part of Fiat’s UK business, the Tipo was outsold by its city-car siblings and the similarly sized 500X crossover. However, the car remains on sale in other markets worldwide. Fiat has stated that its focus is on electric urban mobility, and the indirect replacement for the Tipo in the UK will be the 600e, which is set to be released next month with a starting price of £32,995. It will compete with the Kia Niro EV and Volvo EX30. The 600e will also serve as a more direct replacement for the combustion-engined 500X. Prior to its discontinuation, the Tipo, which was launched in 2015, was available in the UK starting at £28,745 or £29,245 for the Cross variant. In 2021, the Tipo was one of four Fiat models offered with a mild-hybrid powertrain, but it could also be purchased with a 93bhp pure-petrol engine. With the retirement of the Tipo, Fiat no longer has a direct competitor to models like the Ford Focus and Vauxhall Astra. However, it is understood that Fiat is developing an electric supermini, expected to use the same EV platform as the Vauxhall Corsa and Peugeot e-208, as a spiritual successor to the old Fiat Punto supermini.
