B.J.S. Moton was a British automotive manufacturer established in 1987, located in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire. The company was known for producing the B.J.S. Mistral, a plastic-bodied 2+2 gull-wing coupe that utilized components from the Ford Cortina. The design of the Mistral was reportedly inspired by the Lamborghini Countach, although it did not achieve the same level of acclaim.

The B.J.S. Mistral was notable for its poor quality, which was exemplified by an incident at the 1987 Belle Vue kit car show, where a customer became trapped inside the only known prototype of the vehicle. This incident highlighted the challenges faced by the manufacturer in delivering a reliable product.

Despite its ambitious design and intentions, B.J.S. Moton struggled to establish a lasting presence in the automotive market, and the Mistral remains a rare example of the company's brief foray into car production.
