    From Haynes: –<\/p>\n

    \u201cIn September 1956 a delightful little miniature sports car made its debut .Capable of just over 60mph and returning fuel consumption of between 45-60mpg , it was very economical to run and fun to drive . The performance compared with other sports cars was disappointing, but the excellent road holding, in particular good brakes, high cornering power and a remarkably comfortable ride qualify the vechicle as a true sports car as any enthusiastic driver will soon discover.<\/p>\n

    Basis of the car is an unconventional punt-like chassis made of fibreglass . This has very wide and deep box section side members in the driving compartment with a footwell for the drivers and passengers’ feet<\/p>\n

    The chassis is extremely rigid and there is no scuttle shake, the body is a very attractive low built fully streamlined open 2 seater also moulded in fibreglass , with room for two adults and two children in a compartment behind the seats \u2026……the car is and looks very small and the overall height from ground with the hood up is only 3ft.7 3\/8inch……………<\/p>\n

    All round independent suspension is by Girling helical spring and telescopic damper units at the front located by unequal length wishbones, and the rear by swing axles. The engine and gearbox are mounted on tubular steel subframe and there is an aluminium alloy bulkhead between the engine and passenger compartment \u2026…….<\/p>\n

    Weighing only 6.5 cwt the car can be driven to the limit all the time, the road holding characteristics being very similar to a Mini \u2026…………the very short exhaust terminates under the engine and is noisy and tiring \u2026 on long journeys.<\/p>\n

    Maintenance is simple and the bonnet opens wide to allow easy engine access<\/p>\n

    Spares for the engine and transmission are readily available through most motor cycle stockists , and are very cheap .<\/p>\n

    The Berkeley is a very economical and soundly built miniature sports car with a good record of durability\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

    Haynes quotes typical insurance at \u00a310-18 comprehensive with a used price range of \u00a3110-180<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Editors photograph from the Bubblecar Museum<\/p>\n Berkeley from Boddy<\/p>\n \u201cThe Berkeley originated with the desire of well-known caravan company of that name to enter the motor business. They evolved a tiny fwd. Two stroke sportscar from Laurence Bond\u2019s designs made largely, like the Elite of plastic and laid down a production line at Biggleswade where Berkeley\u2019s were turned out in considerable numbers.<\/p>\n The road holding was a good feature, the noise and temperament of the 3-cylinder two stroke power unit less attractive \u2026….<\/p>\n Later, the well-tried Royal Enfield four stroke 2-cylinder air cooled engine of just under 700cc which provides extremely adequate performance, put the Berkeley amongst the acceptable sports cars \u2026……\u201d<\/p>\n Models included: –<\/p>\n B95<\/p>\n B105<\/p>\n \u2026…\u201das the car weighs only 7.5 cwt these engines propel it in no mean fashion \u2026…….the fibre \u2013glass structure is reinforced by alloy members and is of the true chassis-less construction \u2026<\/p>\n At the 1960 Earls Court Show the Berkeley Bandit was shown, a new model built around ford 105 E components \u201c<\/p>\n Specification from Boddy: –<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Marque<\/td>\n Berkeley<\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Model<\/td>\n B95\/B105<\/td>\n Bandit<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Year<\/td>\n 1960<\/td>\n 1960<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Rating<\/td>\n <\/td>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Cylinders<\/td>\n 2<\/td>\n 4<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Bore\/stroke<\/td>\n 70x90mm<\/td>\n 80.9×48.4mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Capacity<\/td>\n 692cc<\/td>\n 997cc<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Valves<\/td>\n ohv<\/td>\n ohv<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Wheel base<\/td>\n 5ft.10inch<\/td>\n 6ft.10inch<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Forward speeds<\/td>\n 4<\/td>\n 4<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Final Drive ratio<\/td>\n 4.31 to 1<\/td>\n 4.125 to 1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Tyres<\/td>\n 12×5.20inch<\/td>\n 13×5.6inch<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n From Robson: –<\/p>\n \u201cThis little car was conceived in England at a time when the economy was beginning to boom, when demand for interesting new cars was rising all the time, and when there was something of a dearth of small \u2013engine British sports cars \u2026……….the Berkeley was designed \u2026…..by Laurie Bond, whose most notable product up to that time was the front-engine front drive three wheeler which carried his name \u2026…….<\/p>\n Berkeley Coachwork Co. were skilled in the use of glass \u2013fibre, so it was to be expected that their four wheeler sports car would have a platform hull mainly of that material with sheet aluminium stiffening, to which a tiny two seat shell was bonded on assembly \u2026……..the hole car was tiny [it was only 10ft \u20133inches long and weighed a mere 700lb] but the performance as still restricted \u2026…………<\/p>\n Although the Berkeley certainly had a great deal of the elusive substance called \u201cCharacter\u201d this could not overcome its twin disadvantages of the noisy engine and relatively crude specification and equipment level .it was after all, nearly as expensive as the Sprite \u2026…….<\/p>\n Performance 2-cylinder Excelsior engine<\/p>\n Max speed 65mph<\/p>\n 0-60mph \u2013 38.3 secs<\/p>\n Typical fuel consumption 50mpg<\/p>\n Robson concludes: –<\/p>\n \u201cBerkeley were in trouble by 1960.They made an attempt to retrieve the situation by showing a prototype of the Ford engine \u201cBandit\u201d model, which was mechanically very different, but nothing became of this and the last Berkeley was built in 1961\u201d<\/p>\n History from wiki:-<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cThe Berkeley automobile was a collaboration between designer Lawrence “Lawrie” Bond<\/a> and the Berkeley Coachworks factory owned by Charles Panter, which at the time was one of the largest manufacturers of caravans<\/a> in Europe.[1]<\/sup><\/a> It was an ideal project for Berkeley, who had developed considerable skills in the use of Glass-reinforced plastic <\/a>[2]<\/sup><\/a> (GRP), and were looking for something to fill the gaps in the very seasonal caravan market. What Panter and Bond wanted to achieve was “something good enough to win World 750cc races… but cheap, safe, easily repairable and pretty.”[3]<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n The early cars were an immediate success on the home market, and several derivative models were spawned over the four years of car production. Export markets, most notably the United States, were exploited and the cars earned a reputation for fun, if fragile, sports motoring on a budget. Recognising the threat posed by the newly introduced Mini<\/a> and Austin-Healey Sprite<\/a> in the late fifties, the company started to develop are a more conventional model with the support of Ford<\/a>.<\/p>\n The caravan<\/a> market collapsed towards the end of 1960, and Berkeley’s poor cash flow<\/a> forced the company into liquidation<\/a> on 12 December 1960, taking its car manufacturing activities with it. After having produced about 4100 cars of various types, the workforce was laid off shortly before Christmas that year. An attempted sale of the company to Sharp’s Commercials Ltd<\/a> (manufacturer of the Bond Minicar<\/a>) came to nothing, [4]<\/sup><\/a> and the company’s assets were liquidated in 1961.<\/p>\n The factory was later used by Kayser Bondor Ltd to make women’s underwear, but it was demolished in 2002 and the site turned over to housing. A road named ‘Berkeley Close’ in the housing estate provides the only obvious link to the car factory.<\/p>\n Today there is an active owner’s club (the Berkeley Enthusiasts’ Club), which provides a range of parts and services aimed at preserving the remaining few hundred cars known to survive worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Figure 2.

A&R Collection<\/p>\n Learning Opportunities<\/strong><\/p>\n Our learning \/educational opportunities are intended to be challenging thought provoking and requiring additional research and\/or analysis.<\/p>\n These opportunities are particularly designed for a museum\/education centre location where visitors would be able to enjoy access to all the structured resources available in conjunction with any concurrent exhibition.<\/p>\n In this instance we suggest the following might be appropriate: –<\/p>\n \n See subjects in Bond and related 1950\u2019s articles<\/li>\n Which designers have contributed design \/input to more than one car marque or other branches of Industrial Design?<\/li>\n Make an exploratory sketch of the Berkeley \u201cHull\u201d body\/chassis unit<\/li>\n Suggest into what other areas of leisure or hobby Berkeley might have diversified<\/li>\n Study history of British light Cars and or three wheelers \u2013what do they share in common?<\/li>\n List marques that have produced three wheelers<\/li>\n Which car marques past and present have adopted motor cycle engines?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Exhibitions, Education, Economics and Entertainment<\/strong><\/p>\n In the museum context the editors believe that commercial considerations are both necessary and complementary with its educational objectives.<\/p>\n For these reasons our suggested outline Business Plan includes provision for promoting products and services which share Chapman\u2019s ideals of mechanical efficiency and sustainability. In addition, we propose merchandising that explain and interprets the social and cultural context of Chapman\u2019s designs in period. It\u2019s suggested there will be catalogue for on line purchasing.<\/p>\n In this instance we suggest the following might be appropriate: –<\/p>\n \n See subjects in Bond and related 1950\u2019s articles<\/li>\n Cornering on Three wheels<\/li>\n Light Cars: Light Years ahead?<\/li>\n Petrol and Plastic: Cars in Crisis<\/li>\n Berkeley: Bonded Plastic<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n The A&R has produced a series of near forensic examination of Britain in the fifties. We have done so to provide a better means for analysing and interpreting Chapman \/Lotus achievements in context.<\/p>\n Our conclusions here can be relatively brief and are partly covered in the articles mentioned.<\/p>\n Britain post second world war produced some exceptionally talented Industrial Designers and Entrepeneur’s.They often adopted or mutated technologies and materials developed during the war, incorporating them into new products.<\/p>\n They did so to meet popular demand. This was not an easy task as the affordability was a major concern.<\/p>\n Motoring and mobility \/ freedoms was a growth area and several manufacturers attempted to diversify into this field; often responding to European entry to market [ see Vespa for example].<\/p>\n Laurie Bond was gifted designer whose name had a reputation. To Berkeley he brought this publicity, experience, driver skill feedback and momentum plus contacts within the industry. The Berkeley might be considered as an upgraded or advanced Bond \u2013 with its sporting pretentions perhaps focused to a younger audience \u2013 but still cost conscious.<\/p>\n The concept was honourable and the business plan reasonable.<\/p>\n However, in a free market these relatively small specialists were in competition with mass producers, economies of scale from both home and abroad.<\/p>\n Towards the end of the 1950\u2019s several major events coalesced:<\/p>\n \n mass production and shared components platforms that permitted the Mini and Austin Healey Sprite Mk.1<\/li>\n along with credit ie Hire Purchase<\/li>\n Baby boomers, young families and teen market, rising standards of living, expectations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n These tended to overtake the specialists.<\/p>\n Although perhaps overlooked; the specialists had very honourably attempted to mobilise the low income in their incorporation of radical specifications .They also continued to innovate and offer new products<\/p>\n In the case of Laurie Bond and Berkeley they possibly inspired or informed Chapman to be even more ambitious and to conceive the Elite. When forensically examined this car like some of the specialists mentioned suffered commercially against a more conservative but significantly cheaper mass-produced mainstream. Chapman like Bond possibly believed they could produce superior products at lower cost.<\/p>\n Both Bond and Chapman would learn from experience. Both produced further cars \u2013The Bond Equipe and Lotus Elan [ see dedicated article on Bond for fuller analysis]<\/p>\n The microcars of the 1950\u2019s have a relevance today in their addressing of fuel economy and sustainability and as such deserve study. Its worth noting too how manufacturers like Caterham have almost returned to the 1950\u2019s with motor cycle engines for a similar basket of motives.<\/p>\n Reference:<\/strong><\/p>\n See Bond cars article<\/p>\n Classic Sports Cars.
