Singer Gazelle

Singer fell into the arms of the Rootes Group in 1956 and their Hunter model was quickly despatched to be replaced by a Singer-badged version of the new Hillman Minx (Audax). Rootes retained the Singer 1497cc engine for the first Gazelle, but from the Series IIA models only the grilles and badges differed from the Hillman models. The Gazelle continued to be developed in the same way as the Hillman Minx and Sunbeam Rapier until new 'Arrows' models replaced them all in 1967.
