Information: - The Austin Ant ( development code ADO19 ) is a small four - wheel drive vehicle that was designed by Sir Alec Issigonis for the motor manufacturer Austin . Although the Ant is widely regarded as a military vehicle , some sources suggest it was conceived with civilian use in mind as well . In its military role , it was a potential successor to the military version of an earlier Issigonis design , the Mini Moke . The Ant was cancelled in 1968 before full - scale production began , during the period when BMC became part of the British Leyland ( BL ) conglomerate ; the merger caused several overlaps in model ranges , and the Ant was regarded as too close a competitor for the Land Rover range . The Ant used an A-Series engine , transverse mounted and tilted slightly backward to allow greater ground clearance and suspension movement . The main gearbox was placed in the engine sump , as on the Mini . A reduction gearbox took power from the main gearbox to the rear axle via a propshaft . The same layout was used 30 years later ( with a K - Series engine ) on the Rover Group 's Land Rover Freelander . - The Mini Moke is a vehicle based on the Mini designed for the British Motor Corporation (BMC) by Sir Alec Issigonis and John Sheppard. - Sir Alexander Arnold Constantine Issigonis, ("Alexandros Arnoldos Konstantinos Isigonis"; 18 November 1906 2 October 1988) was a British-Greek designer of cars, widely noted for the groundbreaking and influential development of the Mini, launched by the British Motor Corporation (BMC) in 1959. - The Mini is a small economy car produced by the English based British Motor Corporation (BMC) and its successors from 1959 until 2000. The original is considered an icon of 1960s British popular culture. Its space-saving transverse engine front-wheel drive layout allowing 80percent of the area of the car's floorpan to be used for passengers and luggage influenced a generation of car makers. In 1999 the Mini was voted the second most influential car of the 20th century, behind the Ford Model T, and ahead of the Citroen DS and Volkswagen Beetle. - The British Motor Corporation Limited (BMC) was a UK-based vehicle manufacturer, formed in early 1952 to give effect to an agreed merger of the Morris and Austin businesses.
