The 1100 Club

The 1100 Club was formed in 1985 to cater for owners of the BMC 1100/1300 range of cars - known as the ADO16 - including Austin, Morris, Wolseley, MG, Riley, Vanden Plas and Innocenti. The aim of the club is to provide members with technical help, support and information and to keep as many examples of the BMC 1100 and 1300 on the road for as long as possible. Although based in the UK, the club enjoys an international following with members in Europe, USA and Asia as well as New Zealand and Australia.
