Austin Motor Company

The Austin Motor Company, better known as Austin, was an English automotive manufacturer that was established in 1905. Austin was founded by Herbert Austin, and was one of the first English car makers. The company first started creating more luxurious models, yet one of Austin&#39;s most famous models was the <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/austin/seven/">Seven</a>, a simple, inexpensive economy car. In 1952, Austin merged with <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/morris/">Morris</a> to create the British Motor Corporation, although both the Austin and Morris names continued to be used for similar products. Together, these companies would sell the legendary <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/mini/classic-mini/">Mini</a> before the model became an independent brand. Austin was also part of the legendary <a href="https://www.classic.com/m/austin-healey/">Austin-Healey</a> collaboration that produced some of England&#39;s most notable sports cars. The Austin brand would go through various owners, including British Leyland and the Rover Group, before being discontinued in 1987.
