WHY ? DID AMERICA, FRANCE AND GERMANY ALL PAY FOR THE RIGHTS TO MANUFACTURE AUSTIN SEVENS v/hen all orthodox light cars were available without royalty? BECAUSE the patented Austin “Seven” Chassis, which has proved so successful during the last eight years, cannot be found in any other light car. Orthodox big car chassis design adapted for a small car definitely would not suit, so they chose AUSTlN—because its absolute reliability as a sound engineering proposition has been conclusively proved during the last eight years. THE AUSTIN “SEVEN” COMPELS YOU TO RECOGNISE THE WONDERFUL WORK IT DOES. BATY’S GARAGE CREYMOUTH AND HOKITIKA. JJOCKEY will be fast this season, and faster still when played with a new Stick from Ivan Bennington, Sports Dealer.
