Love Austin1300GT! I have one bought by my parents 10 years b4 I was born. I grow up with it and still using it now, with all original engine & paint. It's smashing!
My Allegro (AllAgro) was a 1974 N reg 1750cc Sports 2 door Coupe in terracotta orange.
Surprisingly quick for it's date with an 0-60 time of 13 seconds (time travel!).
It deserved it's nickname as it required constant repairs from windscreen wiper motor to crankcase oil seal replacement all of which were carried out by yours truly.
But i have a question- would anyone bother to tell me what is the car in Pink Floyd's video for "high hopes" ? It looks like Morris Minor Traveller ... or Austin Mini Traveller. I've always wondered because i'm not from the UK and i'm not familiar with the cars from the 60's with these wooden frames :) I''ll be happy if someone tells me
Excellent video, excellent photographs and very nice cars !! (My fav is the Austin 1300GT, always wanted one since I learned to drive on a '1300' ) Maybe one day ?!!
cool!i could watch these all day.

@sitonthisdotcom I can't remember the tune - I had to do an Audio Swap as Google didn't like my upload!

It's the colour - I dont think British Leyland called it "Filled Nappy", but they should have done!
