Hi, the homepage and e-mail of the Swiss Avanti Owners Club do not work anymore. Does anyone have new contact data? What happened?

thank you, I will check that out

thank you!

I see, there are some Avantis over here in Europe - thank you for your pictures! In Austria, I am not sure if there are any other than mine but I will find out during next year 🙂

a wonderful view - I envy you for this

thank you! - I am really happy to have it. I definitively enjoy talking to people and tell them about the car, but first I need to learn more about the car myself so that I can do that in a well-founded manner. Avantis are quire rare in Europe. As far as I heard there are a few in Switzerland and also in the Netherlands but not in the other countries. I do not know how many there are in Austria but it might well be that mine is the first and only one in our country. So, I will try my best to come up to this honor.

thank you for the photo and also the link - I found some useful info there on my car with names of prior owners. Prior to me, the car was owned by Mr. Wallimann in Maur, Switzerland

Thanks, this is exactly the document I also received with the car. Mine is just without the handwriting that is seen on your copy, and I have it in on a thin green paper and the same also on a thin red paper. Where did you get that? kind regards, Stefan

Hi, just checked and you are right, engine number ist RS 2514. The sticker is at the side as you correctly identified. I will check if I can change that and put it symmetrically over the hole. Thanks also for the photo with the correct battery. I was not aware of that. LG Stefan

One more question concerning your remark 3 regarding the super charger. I see the hole there but no sticker. What sticker should be there to cover this hole?

yes, it seems the former owner did take care of it quite well, but he has not driven it that much - I was very much surprised how good the breaks are and how easy going the gear shift

yes, the rear view mirror looks great, however it is not very practical as you see more or less only the tops of the cars behind you 🙂

Thank you for your remarks and recommendations! I really appreciate that.

Hi, I have just brought my new Avanti home from its prior owner in Switzerland, last week: 1963 R2 color grey red seats and beige dash imported from the US to Switzerland by Binelli & Ehrsam AG, Zurich first registered in Milano, Italy, in 1967 by a Mr. Passoni VIN R-4641 Engine no. S-2514 Body no. 3609 Factory order no. 1416 I thought I could post some photos here as I am quite proud right now 🙂 If anybody knows anything about this car's prior history, please let me know. Best wishes from Vienna, Stefan
