Synopsis
This book is about British cars of the post Second World War era, when Jaguars regularly won the Le Mans twenty-four hour race and Mini Coopers dominated the Monte Carlo Rally. It was the heyday of the British sports car, when MGs, Triumph TRs and Jaguars were exported all over the world and brought the delights of open-air motoring to a new affluent generations. Top-selling saloons of the time such as Morris Minor, Rover and Ford Cortina, are all reminders that Britain was also producing some of the world's finest automobile engineers. It was a period of change, when new makes such as Austin Healey, Bristol and Lotus arrived and Alvis, Armstrong Siddeley and Riley departed. This Album describes the makes, models and designers and charts the switchback fortunes of the British motor industry over thirty crucial years from 1945 until 1975, when the British Leyland combine was nationalised.
