" ... BMC used overseas subsidiaries to assemble cars from Complete Knock Down (CKD) kits. There was generally an almost complete kit of parts, to which a small quanity of parts sourced or manufactured locally would be added to produce a complete Sprite or Midget."

the Innocenti (Italy) used only the basic Spridget running gear on a completely different bodyshell
