So did the hydrolastics run on vegetable or mineral?...

Obviously the very model of a modern Major General.   ;-)

A friend of mine’s dad had the MG version of the 1300. BRG….looked nice and went well. Sadly, said friend and I took it out to a pub one night and wrecked it on the way home. Actually, we were not at all drunk. It was absolutely pouring with rain and, driving down a steep lane with banks on both side, he aquaplaned it quite spectacularly. We spun round and round. Seemingly, on each revolution, a startled oncoming driver would miraculously miss us. It was 50% inexperience, 50% stupidity. The devil looks after his own! I guess we were about 18 yrs old. Dangerous age.

The dad was a Major General and could be quite fierce but he took it surprisingly well!!

Charlie,



The Austin and Morris 1100s and 1300s were very popular compact BMC four-door saloons in the sixties and seventies.

MG badged them too.  A friend had one with twin S.U.s  It was a fun car.

They all had 'hydrolastic' suspension.  You can check that out on Google.



Thousands were assembled CKD right here in Auckland by the Dominion Motor Company.

Gary,



I'm looking for a workshop manual for my AH 100 BN1. What does the BMC 1100-1300 cover? Thanks.



Regards,



Charlie

I've got original loose-leaf binder workshop manuals for "BMC 1100-1300" and "Jaguar 3.4/3.8 S." Would anyone have any interest in them for the cost of a priority box for mailing?
