This is a reply that appears to have stuck in my out tray since the 
first week in June but I feel that the statement below cannot be left 
uncorrected.

I agree that the BN1 used most of the parts from the A70 Hampshire and 
Hereford and A90 Atlantic front suspension. In fact most parts are the 
same as the A40 Somerset and earlier A40s where this new Austin 
Independent front suspension was first introduced


However the BN2 and all following types had a strengthen front 
suspension that first was used on the A90 Westminster.
