Description
Just arrived at The Garage
A delightful example of this iconic small sports car!
1960 Austin-Healey Sprite Mk1 - excellent condition with upgrades
Launched in May 1958 to considerable acclaim the Austin-Healey Sprite was to give many enthusiasts their first taste of sports car motoring. Costing virtually the same as a small saloon the characterful little Sprite soon became known as the Frogeye or (Bugeye in the USA) where it also proved a great success.
Presented in exceptional order in all respects having been completely restored some years ago and meticulously maintained since.
There are some subtle performance upgrades which include a ‘fast-road’ cylinder head, disc brakes and new callipers. A stainless steel exhaust system is also fitted along with a modified original distributor, tuned to give the correct advance curve. The car has been rolling road tested and is running beautifully.
All weather equipment is in excellent condition and there is a history folder which includes receipts, photographs and the rolling road report. These photos were taken when she arrived after being driven to us (before being prepared).
There is a video on our website.
She has a new MOT certificate valid until January 2026.
