I’m sure many of you don’t need to read this as you will be very
familiar with the story, but I do get asked sometimes by overseas
members for explanations. BMC was the largest British car company of its
day, with (in 1952) 39 percent of British output, producing a wide range
of cars under brand names including Austin, Morris, MG, Austin-Healey,
Wolseley as well as commercial vehicles and agricultural tractors. The
first chairman was Lord Nuffield (William Morris) but he was replaced in
August 1952 by Austin's Leonard Lord who continued in that role until
his 65th birthday in 1961 but handing over, in theory at least, the
managing director responsibilities to his deputy George Harriman in
1956.
