Adams was an automobile introduced manufactured by the Adams Manufacturing Co. Ltd. from 1903 to 1906. ^[2] It was developed by H. Adams, of Tunbridge Wells, Kent, England, who offered a conversion set that converted horse-drawn carriages into motorized automobiles. ^[3] The engine was mounted on a swivelling fore-carriage, and steering was achieved through wheel and vertical column.

In 1905, Adams produced a small two-cylinder light car sold under the name 'One of the Best'. ^{[3] [1]}
