The Austin Seven: the best small car in the world.


  • In 1920 Sir Herbert Austin started work on the concept of a small car, mainly to meet the needs of young families aspiring to own an affordable motor car.
  • The Austin 7 was produced from 1922 to the late 1930s and was the first affordable mass-produced vehicle of British manufacture and design.
  • Some 290,000 Austin 7 cars were produced by Austin’s company and about 8,000 are thought to still exist worldwide.
