An iconic British roadster! Equipped with a 2.6-liter four-cylinder engine and a 3-speed manual gearbox with overdrive. This Austin-Healey 100 BN-1 Cabriolet is a left-hand drive (LHD) example from the 50s, known for its classic British sports car style and timeless elegance.
The car has remained in Sweden since the first admission until it was imported to the Netherlands by the current owner in 2013. Until 2018, the vehicle was registered in Sweden, after which it was registered in the Netherlands. The car has been regularly used for classic car events and was brought to Italy in 2016 to follow the Mille Miglia.
A special feature of this vehicle is that it has never been fully restored; Only the engine has been addressed. The current owner has been able to trace one of the first owners, who owned the car in the late 1950s. This former owner indicated that he had driven the car in Stockholm during a period of snow and was involved in an accident in which the left rear was damaged. The car has since been repainted once, and the repair on the left rear is still visible. The car has not been repainted since the 1950s, which gives it an authentic patina and a rich history.
The body parts of the car are originally stamped with the corresponding numbers of the vehicle, both on the hood and on the trunk cover. The white stickers with the number 4 were already present at the time of purchase and have been retained, but can be easily removed by the new owner if desired. The car has extensive historical documentation, with most of the previous owners registered.
An absolute "one off" as this Austin Healy is 70 years old and a 100% original! Visit the viewing day for your own assessment.
