The Austin
Champ
4WD was built to a British Military specification after
WWII although it later lost out to the cheaper, and more versatile
Land Rover.
The Austin
Gipsy
4WD was an attempt to take on the civilian
Land Rover.
It was innovative in many ways
but floundered on cost and corrosion problems.
The Austin
Ant
small 4WD, one of the products of Issigonis' magic,
did not go into production - on cost grounds.
Beginnings:
1922:
"Baby" Austin 7 produced - 696cc engine, later 747cc.
Unlikely as it may seem, racing versions were built and
Austin 7s have even been driven round the world.
Holden Astra Convertible Turbo(Highly recommended sports car), from $49,990
This European convertible is a stunning car in so many ways. It's a great drive (with high performance 147kw Turbo). It's practical and apart from a small boot has abundant room for 4 or 5 at a pinch. It's loaded with standard features: air, power windows / steer, cruise, 6 speaker CD, ABS, traction control, airbags & more. It also looks great! My Managing Director's lovely wife owns one of these & I have no hesitation in recommending this car to you. A true bargain for a high performance Euro Convertible.
