Hazelcar,The Original Mini
In 1949 two brothers, Eric and Roy Hazeldine, had set up a garage business in Telscombe Cliffs and Rottingdean Sussex, where they designed and built the little Hazelcar. The initial idea was to design a car that would do Auto mph|50|0 and 50 miles to the gallon (5.6 L/100 km). With its transverse four cylinder engine with an end on gearbox (although mounted in the rear) and little wheels, it was the forerunner of the MiniFact|date=September 2007. A petrol version of this type is currently on show in the Bentley Motor Museum in Sussex. They then joined forces with BMA.
