But only built for about 4 years, when did they cease in the UK, same time? 
I remember the first one I sat in, a mate’s rep car, and initially doubtful I was quite impressed, although did not like the wheel arch interfering with my foot on the throttle pedal.
It was also the first car I was in with a seatbelt. Again doubtful my mate told me to strap in then shot down the road and did an emergency stop. Again impressed but I still don’t wear one effectively while driving, I rely on professional attention on the road ahead to be prepared, defensive driving.

They were a Kiwi mob, mate. We had Owens Road and IIRC Owens Sea.
Presumably Burnett was a company they took over.

This may have been posted before, but Dennis Buntine talks about the old days. Spardo, SDU will know better than me.
I thought I had seen it before, and then confirmed it, the first comment from 7 years ago, is mine.
I think it was me who originally posted the link.
