Bob, if you think the Austin has a curious design, take a look at the various efforts Morris tried with the flat-nose Cowley between 1928 and 1931! I think there were four different attempts at trying to get a compensating system, and by all accounts each revision was more complicated and yet less effective than the previous design ... Some designers in the late 1920s just didn't understand how to get a four-wheel braking system to work satisfactorily.
