Humber was a British automobile marque which could date its beginnings to Thomas Humber's bicycle company founded in 1868. In 1931 it was taken over by the Rootes brothers to become part of the Rootes Group. The car range focused on luxury models, such as the Humber Super Snipe. Thomas Humber went to school in Kingston upon Hull, which lies on the Humber Estuary. However, this is the only connection between the Humber car brand and the City of Hull.
