Being driven on the Southern Motorway into Auckland. The Austin 10 was a small car made by the Austin Motor Company. It was launched in 1932 and was Austin's best selling car in the 1930s and continued in production, with upgrades, until 1947. The design of the car was conservative with a pressed steel body built on a cross braced chassis. The chassis was bought in and was designed to give a low overall height to the car by dipping down by 2.75 inches (70 mm) between the axles. The 1125-cc four-cylinder side-valve engine producing 21 bhp (16 kW) drove the rear wheels through a four-speed gearbox and open drive shaft to a live rear axle. Suspension was by half-elliptic springs all round and the brakes were cable operated. The electrical system was 6 volt. For the first year only, a four-door saloon was made in two versions. The basic model cost ?155 and was capable of reaching 55 mph (89 km/h) with an economy of 34 mpg; it was rapidly followed by the Sunshine or De-Luxe with opening roof and leather upholstery at ?168. 1933 saw the saloons joined by an open two-seater or "Open Road" tourer
