I've just bought this, and was wondering what ideas, thoughts people have.   Heres ones I've found   I've heard they are 4 x 108, so Ford rims will fit. |

Seriously now.
Keep it looking standard, maybe a subtle drop, with a MUCH more powerful engine.
Surprise a few people at the lights......

I reckon huge power might be good (maybe for running over the first essex thicko that says 'Is it an escort?')

I like Oddballs idea, I suggest the engine be a Rover V8 though.

It certainly won't be 4 x 108 , try 4 x 4 1/4 as all the fittings on An Avenger will be Imperial, best bet get a set of tiger spec springs lower it, it won't need more than a 5.5" rim, 6" at a push.
As its coil sprung all round and efectively four linked at the rear its will handle loads better than any Escort for the loads less money.

not sure, there's a Talbot Sunbeam, which is based on the avenger. Not sure if there was a Talbot Avenger though, might have been.
Yeah there was a Dodge Avenger back in the 70s (or the 80s?) called the Cricket.
