Automobiles

By 1970 a 97 bhp S model of the Austin 1800 with twin SU HS6 carburettors, a 120 mph speedometer and sporty looking badging was available. In 1970 the Australian subsidiary of BL replaced the 1800 with the modified and facelifted X6 models, known as the Austin Tasman and the more upmarket Austin Kimberley, with Mark II versions of both introduced in 1971. Australia built its own X6 versions. It was a sporty looking Austin.
