About the Austin 12/4 Eton

The Austin Light Twelve-Four was a car produced by the Austin Motor Company from 1933 until 1939. It was replaced in 1939 by a completely new car also called the Austin 12 which kept the same engine.
The Sales Brochure of the day read: -
This is a smart looking car adaptable to carry four persons, if required. The two front seats are separately adjustable and there are also two seats in the dickey, where, if there are no passengers, luggage may be carried dry and secure."

"The hood stows away very neatly when not in use, and is quickly and easily raised in stormy weather. The side curtains when not required are folded away into compartments in the doors."

"The car can be finished to choice of Austin colours and upholstered in best quality leather. There are direction indicators with automatic return, electric dual windscreen wipers, driving mirror, pile carpets, draught and fume excluders, pedal rubbers, baggage accommodation, spare wheel and tyre with cover, and those accessories shown on the chassis specification [page]. All fittings chromium plated. Triplex glass windscreen."
