Description
Introduced to revitalise the Austin-Healey’s dwindling sales numbers, the 100/ 6 Model represented a significant leap forward for the Big Healey. Being a 1957 car, it is equipped with the more potent BMC 2. 6-litre C-series six-cylinder engine, producing 117bhp. The elongated wheelbase of the BN4 variant provides added space for passengers, making it ideal for family outings or trips with friends.
This exemplary model, acquired in 2016, epitomises the finest examples of its kind, boasting a rare and striking Jet Black finish over Colorado Red. Cherished as part of a private Collection of British & European sports cars, this 100/ 6 has been meticulously maintained by Bill Rawles, ensuring its mechanical soundness and authenticity.
The example offered today comes with an accompanying detailed history file documenting its impeccable upkeep and has only covered Circa 1, 000 miles since its acquisition in 2016 and currently has a valid MOT certificate with no advisories. Its limited mileage underscores its excellent condition, ready for immediate enjoyment by its next custodian.
Furthermore, this 100/ 6 comes complete with a range of desirable features, including a soft top, tonneau cover, and original tools, enhancing both its practicality and authenticity. Its timeless design and well-preserved condition make it a standout choice for enthusiasts seeking a classic British sports car experience. Whether cruising along scenic country roads or participating in vintage car rallies, this Austin-Healey 100/ 6 promises an unforgettable driving experience filled with nostalgia and admiration.
