The Avenger originally came with 1250 and 1500 engines. Later on (probably
when it was facelifted to look like the Talbot Alpine) the engines were
increased to 1300cc and 1600cc. The Tigers were all made when the 1498 was
the largest available although I think some might have been fitted with
the Brazilian 1800 or 2000.
