Fletcher was a British automotive manufacturer founded in 1967 by Norman Fletcher Ltd, based in Walsall, Staffordshire. The company emerged from the legacy of the design firm Ogle, which had previously created the Mini-based SX1000 coupé between 1961 and 1963. Ogle left behind several prototypes, including one with a modified front and another with a modified rear.

Norman Fletcher acquired the Ogle moulds and utilized them to produce an updated model known as the Fletcher GT. This model featured a distinctive design with a new inset headlamp arrangement concealed behind perspex cowls at the front, while the rear was characterized by a sharp bustle and altered light clusters.

After the production of the Fletcher GT, the company shifted its focus back to boat manufacturing. Notably, Fletcher later became the parent company of Reliant, a well-known British automotive brand, two decades after its initial foray into car production.
