In summer the road to the summit masquerades as one of the most exciting hill climbs in the country, and provides the gateway to each stage of the Targa three day competition. Except that this year it snowed! Serious issues for racing cars with slick tyres so the organisers were forced to shift the start to down the mountain. The day after Targa finished we drove our Morgan to Mt Buller. Whilst enjoy- ing coffee and cake at Mansfield, we were bailed up by an old chap whose father had driven 3 wheelers for the Morgan factory before the Second World War. He remembered watching the Morgans at Brooklands and was very excited to see our 4/4 parked outside the coffee shop. Although the day was overcast we drove with the top down but stopped to put our coats on before starting the 16km hill climb up to 1800 metres. With the road to ourselves, Brian used the full width except on blind corners - until we met a gravel truck which we crawled behind until he could let us past on a wide corner. It was the first time we had taken the Morgan up the “hill” and it handled very well, even on the switchback corners.

  • 30Yearsoftre Austin 1800
    The British Motor Corporation (Australia), released the Austin 1800 onto the local 30YEARSOFTRE market on the 22nd November 1965, just thirteen months after the model's release in the UK. During the extra months develop­ AUSTIN 1800 ment, various modifications were made to the car. These modifications were later to be incorporated into the UK models. The 1800 soon became a popular car, even being voted the Modern Motor's best compact of the year, in fact the interior space inside the car still leaves almost all other cars far behind (with the exception of Rollers etc). In Australia approximately 60,000 Austin 1800 were produced. The Austin 1800 had various rallying success in its time including a win in the Southern Cross Rally (1969), and coming second (beating Falcon GT's and Porsche), and sixth, in the 1968 London to Sydney A rare care in Australia is this Austin 3 litre, a large car with 6 cylinder conventional drive using the Marathon.

M. J. Foster sent us this picture (see RC#53 letters). He was from Essex in England. The Austin 3 litre built in 1967-8 was not a popular car.
