Basic information and History
A really nice and well cared for Austin Healey 100 of the first generation also called BN1. Austin Healey named the model 100 as it had a top speed of over 100 mph (160 km/h) with its low weight of 1,050 kg and low wind resistance thanks to the adjustable windscreen. The engine is a straight 4 of 2,660 cc, which gives an output of 90 hp.
This particular copy was actually intended for the American market but was redirected to the Swedish market because the model was so sought after.
The car is sold in Sweden and has only had 5 registered owners during its almost 70 years.
The last inspection was carried out in 2017 and is now exempt from inspection forever.
Equipment and Options
Folding windshield
Associated plastic side windows
Leather chairs
Extra equipped with overdrive.
Original manual
Condition
The seller states that the car is in excellent condition, the engine and gearbox work flawlessly and are in good condition, the car is described as completely rust-free and without any noticeable damage to the bodywork.
The spoked wheels are in good original condition and the tires are in good used condition.
The seller refers to the rest of the image material which gives a good picture of the general condition.
Interior-wise, the seller describes that all panels are in good condition and all instrumentation works as it should.
The chairs are covered in leather and are in very good condition, as are the door sides.
Service history
The paintwork was renovated in 2017 and the brakes have been prepared.
Nice and clean in the engine compartment and no known leaks.
Associated inspection documents and other documentation. The seller refers to the picture documentation.
Summary
Rare to find such a nice example that is used and not in a museum or in a car collection, incredibly fun to drive and relatively fast thanks to its light weight. The seller is only selling the car as time is not enough and wishes that someone else can enjoy this beauty!
