	Hillman Imp - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Known internally within Rootes as the "Apex", the Imp was intended as a rival to the Mini.
		The key difference between the two cars was the Imp's 875 cc all-aluminium, single-carburettor ex-Coventry Climax version of a fire pump engine which had appeared on the racing scene.
		By 1967 the company had fallen into the hands of Chrysler, whose stewardship led to the death of the Imp in 1976, after fewer than 500,000 Imps were built and the entire Rootes empire collapsed two years later, when it became part of Peugeot.

		The problem, however, was that for political and employment purposes, Rootes had been obliged to build Imps at a factory near Glasgow, in Scotland, with an inexperienced workforce, while engines and transmissions were assembled in the Midlands, and much shuffling of components ensued.
