The Austin de Luxe is a family car that was produced by Authi at its Pamplona plant between 1974 and 1975.[1][2]
The car was styled by Pininfarina, and based on the chassis and various other components of the Austin/Morris 1100. Yet unusually was powered by a 55 hp 998cc BMC A-Series engine identical to the 998 Mini Cooper with the exception for having only one SU carburettor amongst other things.
