Austin Maxi (1969-1981) Manufactured Total= 472,098
Having driven a 1500 version back in the eighties the one thing that remains a constant reminder of why I enjoyed driving this car was the smoothness of its engine. Added to that are its comfortable front seats and practicality. Not a racer but a civilized form of family transport.
