The message
from "Doctor Evil" contains these words:

Just like BMC did with their badge engineering in the
60s/70s. An Austin 1100 was the same car as the Morris 110. They

looked
the same and they never all came in the same colour. The hard of

thinking
believed they were different cars underneath too, they were not. BMC

were
playing on Little Middle England petty snobbery as people would wait 6
months for an Austin 1100 when they could walk away the next day with a
Morris 1100 for less money too.


Extract from Parkers Guide.

Morris 1100..... 1300..... 1800 - For all specifications and prices see
identical Austin ..... model.

Note for dIMM. That means Morris models were not cheaper.


Dim Lin the Oriental enchantress is not in the market for crappy British
cars, she is into the far eastern jobbies. How dare you insult here. Maxie
will have your guts for garters. Some people are just filth!
