Nuffield park celebrates Lord William Nuffield, a British car maker who founded Morris Garages (MG) in 1904. Morris cars were first made in England in 1913 and were extremely popular. In 1947, Nuffield brought Victoria Park Racecourse in Zetland to build a car factory to fill an expanding market in Australia. At the time, American cars were expensive and hard to get, and the Holden was not yet in full production.
When its new factory opened here in 1950, the company began assembling Morris Minors and Morris Oxfords from packs of imported parts. In 1953, Nuffield Motors merged with Austin and the new company became the British Motor Corporation (BMC). BMC Australia expanded the plant and produced Wolseley, MG, Riley, Austin and Morris cars, including the popular Mini and Moke.
In 1972 the Layland Motor Corporation of Australia brought BMC. Leyland marketer cars designed especially for the Australia market, such as the infamous P-76, launched in 1973. BMC’s Zetland factory closed in 1975.
