Morris bought the assets of Soho, Birmingham axle manufacturer E.G. Wrigley and Company after it was placed in liquidation late in 1923. Up until that point a small number of commercial vehicle variants of Morris cars were built at the Morris plant at Cowley, but with the newly acquired plant in Foundry Lane, Soho, Birmingham serious production began.
Morris also produced some 2200 Morris Light Reconnaissance Cars, 100 Morris CS9 armoured cars, 21,319 Morris CS8 15cwt light trucks, the Morris C4 truck, Morris ML ambulance, 500 Morris Commercial 8x8 GS Terrapin (amphibious vehicle)s, and the Morris Commercial CD series trucks.
The ADO16 was marketed globally under various make and model names; the most prolific variant was the Austin 1100 and Morris 1100. A the height of its popularity, it was widely known as the 1100 (eleven-hundred) in its home market, or as the 1300 when equipped with the 1275cc engine.

A BMC share certificate A BMC ambulance A 1963 Austin Mini Super-Deluxe The Mini was BMC's all-time best seller. A 1965 Riley 4/72. BMC was the largest British car company of its day, with (in 1952) 39% of British output, producing a wide range of cars under brand names including Austin, Morris, MG, Austin-Healey, Riley, and Wolseley, as well as commercial vehicles and agricultural tractors.
Austin made a range of commercial vehicles from 1913, including car-based vans, taxis, light commercial vehicles and trucks. After the merger with Morris to form BMC in 1952 the Austin name continued to be used, for example the Austin FG, which was previously the Morris FG. The FG was the workhorse that kept Britain running in the 1960s.
