Dandy was a British automobile brand that operated between 1922 and 1925. The company was established by James Sumner & Sons, located in Southport, Lancashire.

The Dandy was notable for its unique design as a two-seater three-wheeler, which featured a tilting mechanism that allowed it to pass through narrow doorways measuring just 32 inches (812 mm) wide. This innovative feature made it particularly practical for urban environments.

Powering the Dandy was a 998 cc V-twin engine sourced from JAP, which transmitted power through a three-speed gearbox and chain drive to the rear axle. The body design, which resembled a sidecar, accommodated two passengers seated side by side, contributing to its distinctive appearance in the automotive landscape of the time.
