Hi guys, first post ever but I hope I can help. I have a Moffat Virtue 4 HP which was made by Roseberry. I am currently restoring it (any advice appreciated by the way).

I had trouble originally identifying it but amazingly I came a cross a chap, Don, from Vintage Engine Spares (07) 3200 5382who is a bit of a guru on Moffats, apparently.

He not only knew about my engines finer techinical details but managed to tell me when it was made, paint colour code so i can get the proper paint and where it went on its first sale.

Hope this helps.
