BMC's Austin/Morris 1100 (ADO16) and related cars | UK market

Описание к видео BMC's Austin/Morris 1100 (ADO16) and related cars | UK market

The ADO16 (Austin & Morris 1100/1300 etc) was the backbone of BMC's range throughout the 1960s and well into the 1970s, being a best-seller for many of the years that it was on sale and re-affirming BMC's fondness and ability to badge-engineer many different variants from one basic design.
Here's I've brought together a variety of photographs featuring these classic British cars. As well as the regular UK domestic market versions sold, in both saloon and estate form, I've also included the South African-built Austin Apache, which was built from 1971 to 1978 making it the last iteration of the car originally designed by Alec Issigonis to be sold new anywhere. The oddball SRV5 safety research vehicle in the collection at the British Motor Museum at Gaydon also features.
Variants more familiar to British buyers and included here are the Austin/Morris 1100 and 1300, the MG 1100/1300, Riley Kestrel, Wolseley 1100/1300, Austin 1300GT, and the Vanden Plas 1100/1300 with its walnut dashboard and folding picnic tables in the rear of the front seats. The maroon VdP 1300 in this video's thumbnail is a low-mileage car that my dad ran a few years ago, reminiscent of the MG 1100 which was our family's car in the early 1970s.
