Hi from Ireland
I am after a 4.11 cwp for an avenger but it appears you guys have them all.
They are not common here and wondered are they easy to pick up over there .  Regards Niall

Talk to Paddy..he has a 3.89 cwp to replace the 4.11 in his 1300.

Sent a message, BTW a Sister of mine will be home from Auckland over Christmas so if there is something on Ebay UK one of you guys want then drop me a line.
Such as a 175CD Stromberg with the MK1 linkage I see is on at the moment. You can get some real sweet bargains when items are badly listed.

Such as (note the 12'69 date stamp)








Those Avenger badges would make quite the knuckle-duster! I wonder are there so many on Ebay because of football hooligans snatching Avenger badges for that reason!

The choke cable looks like its for a MK1 Avenger but I'm not sure, looks like it is and has a crimp in the inner cable to hold the choke on rather than the twist to lock - which is a pain in the butt as they do slip. You twist to pull out then just let go of it. Maybe get around to fitting it sometime once the slipping choke cable finally annoys me enough to bother.



Maybe it was crimped afterwards but its a good idea.

Today I bought a Sunbeam badge that I could see was a grille badge for the European MK1 Avengers (the square plinth insert 1250/1500 type) it was cheap, no bids and the seller didn't know what it was for, I'm not working this week, search, 'BMC switch' one two three and on the fourth page.!..

Lunacy!
