When Herbert Austin started his factory at Longbridge more than twentysix years ago, and first commenced to manufacture the cars that bear his name, he decided that to be successful the motor car must be dependable. It is on this thought that the present huge works, employing more than 13,000 workers, has been built. And so in New Zealand: Since the first Austin Car came on to the local market over 22 years ago, until to-day, when Austin occupies the enviable position of being the largestselling English Car in the Dominion, the keynote of Austin success has been DEPENDABILITY; In the minds of the motoring public the name AUSTIN on a car stands for CONFlDENCE—confidence in the carefullyconsidered design, confidence in the uniformly high quality of material and workmanship—confidence in the car to stand up unfailingly to years of strenuous service. IS & : w m SIR HERBERT AUSTIN, K.B.E. THE AUSTIN POLICY THE Austm Policy is, has been, and will be, to introduce new models only to meet new needs—to perpetuate the demand for old models by constantly improving them, and, in short, to protect owners of existing cars from the devaluing effects of superannuation. Austin Cars do depreciate—they cannot do otherwise—but they are not gratuitously devalued by being superseded. The owner of any Austin Seven, since the first to be manufactured, knows that his car is still in production, and, as a result, will fetch & fair price should ha desire to part with it. The Austin Twenty owner, the Austin Sixteen owner and the Austin Twelve-Four owner all have a similar assurance. Indeed, what other firm in the motor industry, it may well be asked, can claim that three of its models have been in- production without intermission for over ten years? Continuity of programme is the Austin main plank, and thus, like the cars it manufactures, the Company's policy is also DEPENDABLE. ittin ii St C' 4. i I JbSßm mr mil J?'': ' ■ v,? * \ -• wk&kii®mm •as Wv, , • KJ#' »J. • ■ N YT - ■' V * ~ $ J ' The Austin Seven Saloon, £230 —This world-famous Austin model is now fitted with Twin-top Four-Speed Gear Box, resulting in better all-round performance and greater driving ease.
