Description
The Austin Light Twelve-Four is a car that was produced by Austin from 1933 until 1939. The "12" in the name referred to the horsepower, a British rating which controlled the annual taxation payable to use the car on the road.
This 1936 Austin Light 12/ 4 Ascot Deluxe has been lovingly restored as a Royal Navy Staff car.
It starts and runs very well, and all fluids are in the correct places. It is fitted with a new 12V battery and the charging system is in working order.
The drive train is very quiet and the gear change is direct with a smooth clutch. The brakes are in good working order and stops as it should.
The car is not immaculate but it presents very well. The paintwork is very nice, and as you can see from the pictures has WW2 features including the white strips and black out lights. The interior was retrimmed during the restoration and is very good order.
We have the current V5 and there is some amount of MOT history online.
Please feel free to contact us for further information or to arrange a viewing - a walk around video is available that can be shared.
We are happy to consider part exchange. Nationwide delivery available.
