The Lost World of the BMC film.

Post by The Reverend Bluejeans »

It really was a different time. I could watch these all day - beats the shit on TV for sure.

The second A95 Westminster film is particularly good. I wonder of the 1925 Austin 7 made it?

There's parts 1, 2 and 3.

53 mpg from a 948 cc A35. Why not? Interesting that it stops in Dorchester, a place I visit quite frequently and it's not changed much.

You can get 50+ mpg from a 948 easily.

Ditto a 998cc Mini.

Hard not to feel sad that Longbridge is now all gone.

Thank you.
An excellent promotional film for Austin.
Imagine now if he suggested that the kid may have to be put in the boot. The old snowflakes would have a field day.
