The Austin Seven was designed by Herbert Austin and Stanley Edge as a private venture, at Austin's home in Lickey Grange, and taken up by Austin after a frosty reception to his design by the Austin board had led to Herbert Austin threatening to take his design to rivals Wolseley. The car was manufactured in many guises from 1922-39, selling over 290,000 models, and was licenced to BMW in Germany as the Dixi, to Nissan in Japan, Rosengart in France, and Austin America in the States as the Bantam. The inexpensive and popular Seven revolutionised the car market in Britain. The Ulster was built 1930-32 as a road going competition car, with outputs of 24bhp unblown or 33bhp with a Cozette blower in the later guise magnetos and pump circulation are part of the package and the blown engine will rev to a scary 5000rpm. The chassis is 3 inches lower, springs cord bound, an external exhaust and pointed tail body. Short and long scuttle versions were built. Austin Seven EA Sports was introduced in February 1930. Soon nicknamed the Ulster on account of its resemblance to the Works racers which had achieved such success on the Ards TT, the model featured a doorless boat-tailed two-seater aluminium body, 'dropped' front axle (complete with bound transverse-leaf front spring), close-ratio gearbox and side-mounted exhaust system. Specially tuned, its 747cc four-cylinder engine developed over fifty percent more power than standard. Diolch am 95,846,011 o olygfeydd anhygoel, mae pob un yn cael ei werthfawrogi'n fawr.
