The Amalgamated Drawing Office was the design and engineering department of the British Motor Corporation. From the early 1950s, the resulting projects of the office were known by the initials ADO. The numbers were assigned to vehicle and engineering projects, some resulting in production models. The ADO numbering system continued well beyond BMC's absorption into British Leyland, who continued to use the convention (not, however on any former Leyland Motors marques such as Rover or Triumph) until the late 1970s.

dbo:abstract
  • The Amalgamated Drawing Office was the design and engineering department of the British Motor Corporation. From the early 1950s, the resulting projects of the office were known by the initials ADO. The numbers were assigned to vehicle and engineering projects, some resulting in production models. The ADO numbering system continued well beyond BMC's absorption into British Leyland, who continued to use the convention (not, however on any former Leyland Motors marques such as Rover or Triumph) until the late 1970s. Contrary to popular belief, ADO does not stand for Austin Drawing Office, the "amalgamation" referring back to the merger of Austin and Morris to form BMC in 1952. (en)
  • Das Amalgamated Drawing Office war die Entwicklungs- und Konstruktionsabteilung der British Motor Corporation. Seit den frühen 1950er Jahren bekamen die dort bearbeiteten Projekte die Bezeichnung „ADO“ mit einer fortlaufenden Nummer. Einige davon standen später für in Serie produzierte Modelle. Entgegen landläufiger Meinung steht „ADO“ nicht für „Austin Drawing Office“. Hier arbeiteten unter vielen anderen Roy Haynes, Alec Issigonis und Harris Mann. (de)
