1962 Austin Morris 1100
Austin/Morris 1100 poster. The Morris 1100
Mk 1 was produced from August 1962 to June 1974. Designed by Sir Alec
Issigonis and following his success with the Mini, Issigonis set out to
design a more sophisticated car which incorporated even more advanced
features and innovations.
In common with the Mini, the 1100 utilised the BMC A-Series engine, mounted transversely to employ front wheel drive. With styling by Pininfarina and featuring front disc brakes plus an innovative suspension system called "Hydrolastic"", the 1100 was consistently the UK's best-selling car throughout the 1960s.
