Cute little cars. They were re-badged as a "Singer" IIRC. The only difference that I could see was the badging and the Singer had wood (dash/doors ?) trim.Originally Posted by 4x4 MORE

SupporterThe Minx with the 3 round tail lights ( one side had Tail light / indicator & reversing light the other side had a fuel cap In the reversing light position & wood grain dash were Australian made & the ones with the long tail light / indicator combination were imported. The Australian cars were better looking cars.I like your thought train Uncle Ho
We seem to be on the same wave length,,, not like young Mick here. He keeps finding me these really expensive cars
The old Austin's etc are good cars, I want something very simple in design/mechanics. I didn't realise the Minx was an Ausie build, interesting, might have to rethink some stuff.
Jerry, I'm sorry, but I couldn't possibly afford the one that's in the previous post, let alone one that's more so in dollars. I do like them though, but I'm afraid a long way out of my reach. Its bad cause Leeanne doesn't mind them either

Finding a Hillman Imp now would be very hard, as they had an Aluminium Block and the Australian motorist could not understand the need for Inhibitor in the water jacket, this persisted through the years of alloy headed cars, and into the early Range Rover years,a pity really, as some very nice vehicles went to the wreckers/crusher all because the insurance companies deem "Beyond Ecomonical Repair"

Interesting..

Considered one of these? Cheap and fun!

Those MGB-GT's were a very expensive car when new,so they would be pretty thin on the ground,my taste in MG's is the last of the "T" series the TF-1500 that last of the British Sports Cars
The "A" was nice in a BMC sort of way.
