BMC Bargain!

The BMC 1100/1300 range is your chance to own a sharp slice of Pininfarina styling riding on an even sharper chassis for a fraction of the cost of an early Mini. 

Usable examples of the Austin and Morris versions start at £1000 while even the up-spec MG, Riley and 1300GT alternatives are only three times that in equivalent condition – the mini-limo Vanden Plas and Wolseley variants fall in between. Of course, perfection costs – you’d have to budget more like £8k for a well restored MG, Riley or 1300GT, and proportionately less for the others.

If you’re tempted, have a look at the detailed buying guide in the latest issue of Classic Cars magazine for all of the essential checks and model choice guidance you could wish for, plus specialist expert views and real owner experiences to make the process as easy as possible.

Buying advice and market analysis is part of 16 pages of buying information in every issue of Classic Cars magazine, including Quentin Willson’s Smart Buys, Russ Smith’s Market Watch, in-depth buying guides and Ads on Test.
