About this product

Product Information

The British Motor Corporation's 1100 and 1300 model range was amongst the most successful in the Corporation's history, selling more than 2.1 million of all types between its introduction in 1962 and its demise in 1974. World-wide, it was sold under eight different marque names and in two-door saloon, four-door saloon, two-door estate, and five-door hatchback forms - and very nearly as a van as well. In Britain, it was the country's best-selling car between 1962 and 1971, being beaten just once (in 1967) by the Ford Cortina. BMC 1100 and 1300 looks at the design and development of a model range that at the time confirmed BMC as a pioneer of new automotive ideas and had a profound impact on other manufacturers. It covers not only the full standard model range, but special conversions, cars built abroad, and owning and running the cars today. AUTHOR: James Taylor is a distinguished motoring historian with more than fifty books to his credit. He also writes for specialist magazines both in Britain and overseas, covering the whole motoring spectrum from classics to current models. His specialist subject might be regarded as Rover, but he has contributed several titles to the Crowood AutoClassic series on subjects as diverse as Land Rovers and BMWs. 150 colour photographs

  • VERY WELCOME + WELL WRITTEN BOOK.GOOD VALUE.

    NOT REALLY BETTER THAN EXPECTED AS I HAVE READ OTHER PUBLICATIONS BY JAMES TAYLOR WHICH HAVE ALL BEEN WRITTEN WITH KNOWLEDGE + EXPERTISE.NOT A SUBJECT THAT HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY COVERED IN MUCH DEPTH = CAN ONLY THINK OF "THE STORY OF THE BMC 1100" OBTAINED FROM THE BMC 1100/1300 OWNERS CLUB.ONLY COMPLAINT FROM ME IS THE LACK OF ANY PICTURES OF THE PROPOSED (BUT MISJUDGED) BMC 1100 VAN,DESPITE BEING AVAILABLE ELSEWHERE.MOST WELCOME + WELL WRITTEN BOOK.

  • Great encyclopaedic book about the best selling car of the 1960s.

    A very thorough book about the history of the ADO16 (BMC 1100/1300) and the different variants, including non-uk variants such as Spain's Authi Victoria and South African models.
