Isn't Ryton the traditional Rootes HQ near Coventry? His geography is a mess! The Imp was built in Linwood near Glasgow. But the logistical issues between Linwood and Coventry were items BMC didnt have to deal with.

Considering this was "Chrysler" or Rootes country, there really were not a lot of Hillmans, Chryslers, Singers or Sunbeams to be seen. I think I caught one or two but where are the Imps?! Interesting footage of a time gone by.

Whatever causes this phenomenon is not limited to Gurdon.

Far better than the Yugo, it might have still been slightly behind the Mazdas, Toyotas and Hondas of th...
