I can testify for the Hillman...despite the famous Jack quote "...Hillman?, you don't want it!"...For sale sign on a Hillman, Fall of 1967, LaSalle parking lot...me and seller shook hands on a deal for his Hillman ($150.00), went home told Dad, "gonna buy my first car Pop!"...Deal died right then and there, with the now famous quote!
Dad was Right! Can you imagine Michael @ 20 years old driving a car from the Right Hand side & having to shift gears with his Left Hand!?! then again, from the right hand side he would have been able to see parked cars more clearly...
Such a cool video Blaze...thanks, that's as close as I'll ever get to driving a Hillman. I think it's a beautiful car and would buy one today if I could find one and if it would sell for the original $150.00 that was agreed upon back in 1967! Thanks Malcolm, good luck with that beauty!
How about if we have a major sporting event without Referees, Umpires, Judges or Stewards? I Love that a 65 to one shot did ...

We saw a Hillman in a parking garage in Dublin. It was soooo small that a Mini parked nearby looked like a 67 El Dorado!
The wheels on Malcolm's Hillman are so small they don't spin as far thus the lower mileage. Cliff Claven
