Second family of Issigonis-inspired front-wheel  drive masterpieces, making much more money for BMC than the Mini ever did. Same basic transverse engine/transmission pack as Mini, but with front disc brakes and Hydrolastic suspension connected front to rear. Pininfarina style, also badged as Morris, Riley, Wolseley, etc. Rust-prone, and no 'classic' value today. Replaced progressively by allegro from 1973.
