You could tell the full size Austins and
Morrisses apart by the radiator grille - if it had straight bars it was a
Morris, wavy bars and it was an Austin. Usually the cars were identical except
occasionally the Austin would have some wood veneer on the dashboard and a
clock. This is the Corgi equivalent - change the shape of the badge, wavy lines
on the grille and its an Austin.
The Austin Mini was usually seen in red,
there is a scarce yellow version and an even scarcer pale blue version, the
really rare one though is a red car produced as a promotional model for Jensen's
department store in Copenhagen, they are seriously valuable. |
