HILLMAN AVENGER : CRAIG PIDGEON 

The Car sounds Awesome and is totally geared right for that track with the use of First gear in that tight Right hander. Lovely machine.

I owned a new 1973 Avenger GT 1500cc (two door). The build quality was the very worst I have ever known before or since. However, once out of warranty I sorted it. The performance was improved with Dellorto twin 40's, competition exhaust, electronic ignition, some head work etc. 175 x 13" types replaced the std 155's. It revved to 7500 with ease and reputedly to 8000 in standard bottom-end form. Traction and road holding were excellent.

My 1.6 DL never went like that🤣
