In 1964 a new fascia with imitation wood veneer covering was fitted to the A40 Farina Mark II. An Austin badged counterpart of the Morris 1100 had been introduced a year after the Morris at the end of 1962, so in 1964 the A40, in its seventh year, was competing with a larger model made by the same company, the British Motor Corporation. The A40 was by then outclassed by newer models. The new fascia had a wood effect.
