Car articles about Hillman Minx Super by year
The Hillman Super Minx is an exotic model in our part of the world. It was already so in the early sixties, despite attractive prices (especially in Austria) and the interesting automatic called "Easydrive". This article reproduces the original wording of the 'hobby' test report from 1962 and is illustrated with historical archive images as well as two rare sales brochures - one saloon, one convertible.
At the end of 1962, the magazine 'hobby' carried out a major comparative test with eleven saloons from Germany, France, England and Italy. In a tough competition, hot-blooded family sports cars had to be compared with utility saloons designed for comfort. The fact that a German representative won was not a matter of course, as places 2 to 4 went to "foreign countries". This article reproduces the original wording of the report at the time and shows all eleven sedans compared in many archive photos.
The British Rootes Group was already producing models with the name "Minx" before the Second World War, which were very popular and found many buyers both on the island and on the European mainland. From 1961, the Hillman Super Minx, a further evolutionary stage of the mid-range car, was available at dealerships. It did not boast any great innovations or stunning driving performance, but proved to be practical and reliable, and the well thought-out soft top design and manufacturing quality were also impressive. This test report from 1963 shows the car in historical photographs and sales literature and discusses in detail the advantages and disadvantages of the English convertible, which was discontinued in 1964.
