The Austin Motor Company was founded by the late Lord Austin (then Mr Herbert Austin) in 1905 with a capital of £15,000. Austin was not new to motor manufacture for he had previously been with the Wolseley Company and had designed his first car - a 3 wheeler - in 1895.
From that small beginning - the first factory occupied 2.5 acres and produced 120 cars a year. The company has expanded until today it is one of the biggest in Europe, producing vehicles at the rate of over 3,000 a week. The payroll has grown from 270 to 18,000 people. In the intervening years it has produced some famous motor cars, notably the Austin Seven, which introduced a new standard of small car motoring for the family man.
Today the company is controlled by one of the most dynamic figures in British industry, Mr L.P. Lord.

AUSTIN MINI DESIGNER £1350.00 Post Code: PO13
The mini designer has a 1275 metro engine installed with engineers report dated 5th Sept 2003, therefore the stated mileage is inaccurate. I believe that the mini has only done about 10,000 miles with this engine in it. It has a twin DTM exhaust and a full walnut effect dash with four spot lights on the front which are wired in. I have also had an extra break light added to the parcel shelf. I have a comprehensive documented history of work carried out on the car. It has just passed it's MOT with no major problems and no recommendations.The starter motor was replaced on Feb 06
