“And I heard the policeman say...” Authentic experience of an Austin owner-driver. “T AT’S always nice to hear your own judgment vindicated behind your back. The other day I was driving through a crowded street in my Austin when 1 had to pull up before a stationary car which completely blocked the way. After its perspiring owner had expended much effort in trying to get it started, a policeman strolled over from point duty and with a tolerant smile remarked s ‘Why don’t you sell it and INVEST in an Austin ? ’ This just expressed what X was feeling myself at the time. I thought it significant that a man with more than average experience of cars’ behaviour (but not an Austin shareholder, mark you !) should be so firmly of the opinion that, whatever other cars may do, an Austin never lets you down. And that’s what matters most in my opinion. If the Austin looks well—and it does ... very well—that is all to the good. If it saves me money in running and upkeep costs —again I give it full marks—that is better still. But if it gives me years and years of Dependable motoring without a breakdown, and finally a good resale price—then l reckon I’ve 'got a sound motoring investment. I’ve no use for handle-swinging and under-the-bonnet work, and I don’t like to lie on my back and see my car from underneath. That’s the reason why I always recommend my friends to INVEST.” / The new six-window AUSTIN “ TenFour ” Sherborne Saloon featuring downswept flush back-panel enclosing spare wheel and luggage carrier, wide and deep mudwings for cleanness, anatomically correct seating within the wheelbase, hour-glass steering, foolproof controls, exceptional stability and safety through low centre of gravity, and the long proved Dependable Austin “Ten-Four” chassis.
