After the Second World War, new cars in Britain were very hard to come by. Petrol was rationed, roads inadequate, and modern technology lacking. At the start of the 1950s, Morris, Austin and Ford put increasing numbers of British families on four wheels, while new sports cars from MG, Jaguar, Triumph and Austin-Healey promised motoring excitement. Giles Chapman investigates the fascinating motoring decade of the 1950s.
