Avia was a British automotive brand that emerged in 1961, founded by Armat Ltd, based in West Kingsdown, Sevenoaks, Kent. The company aimed to produce a unique sports car that combined the mechanical components of the Triumph Herald with a distinctive 2+2 seater coupé body made of fiberglass.
Despite the innovative design and a proposed price of £655, Avia's production was short-lived, and the vehicle never reached the market. The brand's brief existence highlighted the challenges faced by small manufacturers in the competitive automotive industry of the time.
