Herbert Austin probably saw his first car in 1894 and in May 1896 the Wolseley Board voted him £2000 to manufacture cars. 
The first " Wolseley Autocar Number 1 " was exhibited at Crystal Palace in December 1896.
The first Austin designed, badged and built car was announced in November 1906, being shown at the Olympia Exhibition on the 13th.

No, this is not an Austin.
