My latest missive is a book on that oft maligned British Classic car the ADO16. This is the Austin/Morris 1100/1300 which was also badged as a MG, Riley, Wolseley and Vanden Plas and was the best selling car in the British market in the 1960s. Designed by genius Alex Issigonis the ADO16 was a brilliantly packaged saloon car which was the family car of choice for the British family. Good looking, mechanically reliable and suprisingly innovotive the car sold very well and rapidly became ubiquitous - virtually every picture of a street scene or any UK based film in the 1960s and early 70s had an example present in it!
The book is published by Veloce, it is 112 pages long with loads of colour pictures, owners impressions and features all the various badge engineered variants. I think its a really nice little book and a well deserved tribute to one of GB's forgotten cars.
Today the car is overshadowed by the Mini and while writing the book I met some lovely owners of the cars who are dedicated to keeping the memory of these oft forgotten cars alive - and rightly so. So I hope that this book will help to promte the car as both a design icon and a practical classic. Thanks are due to the members of the 1100 club without whom this project would have been almost impossible - David Haycock, Dean Oakey,John Norris and Roy Robinson as well as my mate Jim Hills all of whoms cars feature in the book.
