In Germany in the early sixties, small cars had a hard time, the vehicles in the "upper" classes scored points with more powerful engines and more generous space and were simply better suited as status symbols. However, a very special compact car, built by the British Motor Corporation, was able to convince the trade press in particular, and even more so, to inspire them. How do you pack so much car into such a space-saving package? This article reproduces a test report from July 1962 and shows the pioneering compact car in extensive historical footage.
