1961 Model 7 (Bogliq Mutineer)
The new Model 7 had big shoes to fill. The Model 2 was a very popular car with the Mk I selling top of it’s class and the Mk II continued the Mk I’s popularity with the general public. The Model 7 also debuted a new, high reliability, evolution of the Beta engine architecture. The Gamma architecture dropped the problematic alloy heads for cast iron while retaining the higher performance of the direct valve actuation, overhead cam design.
All the Model 7 had to achieve was massive popularity with the general public. That isn’t too much to ask, is it?
