1959 | Austin-Healey 100/6 (BN4)

We are selling a beautiful Austin Healey 100/6 BN4 on behalf of a customer

Donald Mitchell Healey (1898-1988), himself a successful racing driver, was the designer of various sports cars, which he developed and built together with the British Motor Corporation (BMC). His Austin Healey 100 is the star of the British Motor Show in London in 1952.
It was given the name '100' because it was one of the few of its time that could consistently maintain a top speed of 100 miles per hour. The later built Austin Healey 3000 was named after its 2912cc engine.
In 1956 the successor to the Austin Healey 100 followed, the 100/6 model, also known internally as the BN4. It was based on the 100 (BN1 and BN2), but offered space for 2 rear seats due to a longer wheelbase. Its 6-cylinder BMC-C series engine with 101 hp and 2.6 liter displacement was longer, which is why the radiator had to be placed towards the front. This led to the air scoop integrated into the hood. Also the radiator grille was adjusted and made oval. The previously standard spoked wheels and overdrive were now only available as optional extras. In 1957 the engine was revised to 117 hp.

The vehicle we offer is a well-maintained, serviced and partially restored vintage car.
The interior has been renewed, as well as the hood and the associated tonneau cover.
Chassis and engine are in good technical condition.

The vehicle was checked again by us and received a technical check.

Extensive documentation of the history is available.
