Gordon-Keeble was a British car marque, conceived in Slough, then constructed in Eastleigh, and finally in Southampton, between 1964 and 1967. The marque's badge was unusual in featuring a tortoise — a pet tortoise walked into the frame of an inaugural photo-shoot, taken in the grounds of the makers. Because of the irony the animal was chosen as the emblem.
