Hillman Imp photograph.
To rival the BMC Mini Rootes sold a number variations of the Hillman Imp theme. This L registration example is a basic Hillman version from 1973. Power comes from the innovative all-alloy engine of 875cc. Reliability of many Imps tarred the image of this small rear-engined car and the Imp never really recovered from the legacy of overheating engines and roadside breakdowns.

Can you tell me any more about this Hillman Imp? If you're into these cars, or other types of classic Hillmans, and would like to see your car featured in the Your Car Stories section at oldclassiccar, by all means get in touch as I'd like to feature as many original or restored Imps as possible.
All the pictures featured here were taken by myself at the August event in 2004.
