The 1100 Club was formed in 1985 to cater for owners of the BMC 1100/1300 range of cars, Austin, Morris, Wolseley, MG, Riley and Vanden Plas.

The aim of the club is to provide members with technical help, support and information and to keep as many 1100/1300 cars on the road for as long as possible.

The 1100 club also produces a bi-monthly magazine, "Idle Chatter", six times a year.

The 1100 Club has embarked on a special project in the form of a celebratory book to mark the 50 years since the launch of the BMC 1100.

The book is A4 (hardback), in full colour and has in excess of 160 pages which contain over 500 pictures/illustrations and over 57,000 words.

The book is now available and copies can be purchased through this website.

Members can take advantage of a special introductory offer but must login to the members area for details and to make their purchase.

Read an article in the Oxford Mail about the book.

The 1100 Club owns and maintains this Austin 1100 Countryman Skeleton car, used at the 1966 Geneva Motor Show and other such events by BMC.

You can visit the car at the Stondon Transport Museum near Henlow, Bedfordshire, where it is on permanent display.
