It played ok for me , very clear how the Mini bonnet folds up and impacts the windscreen , just shows how strong the Morris 1100 is ,the 1800 obviously has more weight hence the damage , I still cant believe they want 60 pounds to download the clip

A good video to watch on the British Pathe site is "AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND POWER UNITS aka A CHANGE IS AS GOOD AS A REST"
It contains a lot of shots of A series engines getting built (with auto boxes!)

There you go..I thought it was a great wall, I shamelessly stole it from Dramatica. Nothing but the finest Yank design and engineering in this footage!
