Issigonis honoured

Alec Issigonis, Technical Director of the British Motor Corporation, to whom all who have fun in minibrics are indebted, was recently presented by the Carmen’s Company of the City of London, with their Viva Shield, for “his contribution to getting ordinary folk mobile.” Apparently his visit to receive this award from Mr. Frederick Cumber, Master of the Carmen, was the first time Issigonis had been to the City of London.
