and yes, here's the UK Oldest known and their owner comments

Me : any secret info contained within the Magic Numbers here?

Michael : not that I am aware, those chassis plates are different to ours. Archives are kept at the Coventry car museum, might be worth dropping them an email, see if they can give you a build date etc

the mystery continues

We've had at least 3x 1970 Owners on the fourms via the results of the "What year is your Avenger Poll" here : https://www.avenger.co.nz/forum/index.php?topic=222.0



And the Avenger Census 2019 (NZTA online records) put it as 1 of 2 still 'in the system'

I got new ones made pretty cheaply by a local upholstery shop.

For carpets, Autodec in Manukau do new carpets for an Avenger. They do full set of carpets for inside the car, I have replaced the carpets in my 75 sedan, 79 and 80 wagons. I know they do wagon boot mats, but I haven't asked about sedan boot mats because my sedan has a fuel tank in the boot.
