In 1962, a quite revolutionary new saloon was launched by BMC at the same time as the brand new MGB. Initially wearing the Morris badge, ADO16 was hot from the drawing boards of Alec Issigonis and Pininfarina. Offered in many guises by Innocenti, Morris, Riley, Wolseley, Vanden Plas, Austin, and MG the AD016 was truly universal in its appeal. In line with BMC's policy at the time, Austin badged versions of the ADO16 were built at Longbridge, whilst Morris and MG versions were assembled at Cowley. The original MkI models were distinctive for their use of Hydrolastic suspension. Unlike almost all of its competitors, the AD016 featured front-wheel drive instead of rear-wheel drive. The MkI Austin/Morris 1100 was available, initially, only as a four-door saloon.
Offered as a single family owned example, this 1100 Saloon retains its original engine and gearbox and registers a genuine c.93,000 miles on its odometer with accompanying history to document it. This particular example has been garaged since 1994 but still rolls freely despite the 21 years of storage. Supplied with a history file including a variety of invoices, MOT certificates and an original V5 document.
